NHTSA recall 08V416000
Service Brakes, Air · Gulf Stream Coach, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with bendix sr-7 spring brake control valves. The parker scv brass 90 degree single check valves (scv) which attach to the supply port of a bendix sr-7 spring brake modulating valve can break apart. Pieces of the parker scv can become lodged inside the sr-7 spring brake modulating valve, potentially causing either leakage out of the sr-7 valve or preventing air from properly exhausting from…
Why it matters: These conditions could either result in leakage and cause a delay in the application of the spring brake without warning or possibly lead to unintended vehicle rollaway or brake drag which could result in a vehicle crash, personal injury, or death.
The fix: Gulf stream is working with daimler trucks to have these vehicles repaired (please see 07V302). Owners can contact daimler trucks at 1-800-547-071 or gulf stream at 1-574-773-7761.
