Issue

Certain vehicles may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 121 - Air Brake Systems. Clamps securing the front brake hoses may have been over-tightened at time of assembly. This could distort the brake hoses, potentially causing damage and leaks. If a leak occurs, it would cause delay brake actuation, and could cause the vehicle to fail to conform to the standard. A delay in brake actuation would increase stopping distances, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and repair air hoses and clamps as necessary.
