What NHTSA recorded

A resonant vibration can be initiated under certain operating conditions, causing a deterioration of the brake chamber which results in reverse brake cam rotation creating grabby brakes, brake chatter, or spring brake damage. Consequence of defect: if this occurs, complete brake failure could be experienced, and could lead to an accident.

Remedy

Remove spring seats, reverse the axle, reweld and assemble suspension.
