Certain vehicles do not comply with the requirements of CMVSS 121. The indicator light designed to notify the driver of a malfunction in the trailer antilock braking system (ABS) was omitted during vehicle assembly. ABS failure without proper driver warning can result in a loss of vehicle control. Correction: Dealers will install a trailer ABS malfunction warning light.
On certain vehicles, incorrect coating was applied to the parking brake assembly anchor bolt during fabrication. This could reduce the fatigue life of the bolt and lead to premature failure. If this bolt were to fail, there is a potential for the truck to roll away while parked without warning. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, replace defective bolts.
