UNDERCOATING APPLIED TO THE INSIDE OF THE CAB SHELL SQUEEZED OUT DURING ASSEMBLY ONTO THE BRAKE PEDAL PLUNGER. Remedy: DEALERS WILL CLEAN THE UNDERCOATING FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL PLUNGER ASSEMBLY, LUBRICATE AND REINSTALL THE BRAKE PEDAL PLUNGER ASSEMBLY.
THE TRACTION SOLENOID EXHAUST CAN BE OBSTRUCTED DUE TO INADEQUATE DRAINAGE AND A BUILD-UP OF ROAD CONTAMINATION BETWEEN THE MOUNTING BRACKET AND THE SOLENOID HOUSING. THE OBSTRUCTED EXHAUST PREVENTS THE RELAY VALVE CONTROL AIR PRESSURE FROM VENTING AFTER A DIFFERENTIAL BRAKING TRACTION EVENT. Remedy: DEALERS WILL REMOVE THE SUSPECT VALVE AND INSTALL A NEW VALVE THAT HAS A MODIFIED SOLENOID HOUSING WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR SUFFICIENT DRAINAGE AND A NEW VALVE MOUNTING BRACKET WITH INCREASED HEIGHT TO REDUCE ENTRY OF CONTAMINATION.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: CLASS 8 HEAVY DUTY TRUCKS. THE AIR SUSPENSION CONTROL VALVE SUPPLY LINE WAS NOT PLUMBED THROUGH AN AIR PRESSURE PROTECTION VALVE. IN THE EVENT OF A FAILURE, THERE WOULD BE LOSS OF AIR PRESSURE IN THE 'B' SYSTEM AIR RESERVOIR THAT SUPPLIES AIR PRESSURE FOR THE FRONT STEER AXLE BRAKES. Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL THE NECESSARY AIR PRESSURE PROTECTION VALVE.

On certain vehicles, the air ride suspension control valve supply line is not plumbed through an air pressure protection valve. In the event of an air suspension bag failure, there will be loss of air pressure in the "b" system which supplies air pressure to the front steer axle brakes. This could result in loss of front steer axle brakes and increased stopping distances. Correction: Air pressure protection valve will be installed.
SOME OF THE UNDERCOATING APPLIED TO THE INSIDE OF THE CAB SHELL MAY HAVE SQUEEZED OUT DURING ASSEMBLY ONTO THE BRAKE PEDAL PLUNGER. THIS MAY CAUSE THE PEDAL TO STICK RESULTING IN INCREASED BRAKE PEDAL EFFORT AND/OR SLOW RELEASE OF THE BRAKES. CORRECTION: BRAKE PEDAL PLUNGER ASSEMBLY WILL BE CLEANED, THEN LUBRICATED AND REASSEMBLED.
