What NHTSA recorded

These trucks were equipped with defective hydraulic pressure switches in the load span tag system. When a malfunction in this system occurs, axle to pavement pressure increases when vehicle is operated in an unloaded condition.

Remedy

The existing control switch will be replaced with a three-position switch which, by use of a neutral position, will preve nt pressure buildup. A new operation label will also be included.
