What NHTSA recorded

A steel tube that delivers air to the front axle air brake chamber can contact the front shock absorber. Consequence of defect: repeated contact can wear a hole in the tube, causing air pressure to be lost during brake application. This could result in impaired braking capability and an accident.

Remedy

Reroute steel tube and/or replace, as necessary.
