Jul 13, 2006 · NHTSA campaign 06V254000 · 1,184 vehicles

Problem: Certain medium duty trucks equipped sr-7 bendix brake valves, the check valve inside the valve cavity May not properly set, causing internal air leakage. If the check valve does not properly seat, the resulting leakage can cause a delay in the application of the spring brakes to park the vehicle after operator pulls the dash valve button.

Original NHTSA wording
