What NHTSA recorded

The air lines to the right rear brake chamber can be pinched by the auxiliary heater cabinet if the air in the rear air suspension system bleeds out when a leak develops or the engine has not been run for an extended period of time.

Possible consequence

This would affect operation of brakes, creating apotential for an accident.

Remedy

Reroute air lines to right rear brake chamber to provide clearance with the auxiliary heater cabinet.
