Service bulletins

1 bulletin

Technical service bulletins are instructions a manufacturer sent its dealers about a known fault. They are not recalls and the work is usually not free, but they are the clearest signal of a problem the manufacturer already knows about.

Air Brake Rework

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

Potential for slack adjuster failure on trailer air brakes. Failure observed when the self-adjusting actuator rod pulls out the boot. Failure has not prevented brakes from actuating but may cause the brakes to not release fully. Units re-worked to replace push rod on brake chambers with a shorter rod meeting axle manufacturer's specifications.

Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
