What NHTSA recorded

The parking brake actuating lever cam may contain a quench crack which can widen, reducing the holding capability of the parking brakes. Consequence of defect: the reduced holding capability of the parking brake could allow an unattended truck to roll away uncontrolled, which may lead to an accident.

Remedy

Install a new actuation lever.
