    Service Brakes, Air / Supply / Check Valve

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    On certain trailers equipped with bendix sr-2, sr-4, and sr-5 trailer spring brake valve assemblies, the molded rubber face of the inlet/exhaust valve (i/e valve) component of the affected valves can separate from the valve's metal insert. Air can be trapped by a separated i/e valve causing it to balloon and block the exhaust passage of the trailer spring brake circuit.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    This condition can result in the affected vehicles being unable to apply the trailer parking/emergency spring brakes during parking in the event of a trailer supply line failure. Unintended rollaway could occur, possibly resulting in personal injury or death to the vehicle occupant or any bystanders.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Bendix will notify customers and provide a repair kit and installation instructions free of charge. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact bendix at 440-329-9000 or strick at 704-436-2441.

    Suspension

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Vehicle description: 28' van trailers supplied to motor cargo, INC. Cracks have occurred in the crossmembers above the suspension.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record

    Remedy, in the NHTSA record

  3. 98V121002Received . 45 units.

    Service Brakes, Air / Slack Adjusters

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Vehicle description: trailers equipped with maxibrake i actuators, type 20, type 24, type 30, and type 36. These brake actuators do not have an overstroke indicator. This does not comply with the requirements of FMVSS no. 121, "air brake systems."
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    This condition can lead to reduced brake output if the brakes or not properly adjusted or when it is used without an automatic brake adjusting mechanism.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Midland will provide owners with a modification kit which will make the brake system compliant.

  4. 97V238004Received . 334 units.

    Service Brakes, Hydraulic / Antilock/Traction Control/Electronic Limited Slip

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Vehicle description: trailers equipped with antilock braking system (ABS) electronic control units (ECU) for over-the-road trailer applications. The cover seal (o-ring) may have been improperly installed in certain easy-stop trailer ABS electronic control units. An incorrectly installed seal could permit water to enter the ECU causing a fault to develop. This will cause the vehicle's trailer ABS warning lamp to illuminate immediately when the water contacts the board, deactivating all or part of the ABS.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If the warning lamp signal is ignored for a period of time, corrosion can develop eventually leaking to a complete loss of ECU function. The service brakes would continue to be fully functional.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Rockwell is conducting the notification and remedy for this recall. Dealers will replace the ECU on these trailers.
