Defect description
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: HEAVY DUTY TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH AIR BRAKE HALDEX AUTOMATIC SLACK ADJUSTERS, LONG STROKE BRAKE CHAMBERS, AND DANA BRAKES. THE AUTOMATIC SLACK ADJUSTER ANCHOR BRACKETS CAN FAIL DUE TO FATIGUE FRACTURE AND COMPLETELY SEPARATE, CAUSING THE SLACK ADJUSTERS TO FUNCTION AS MANUAL SLACK ADJUSTERS.
Safety consequence
IF THE SUPPORT BRACKET FOR AN AUTOMATIC SLACK ADJUSTER FAILS, THE BRAKES AT THAT WHEEL END WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY ADJUST. AS THE BRAKE LININGS WEAR, THE VEHICLE WILL HAVE REDUCED BRAKING CAPACITY, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Manufacturer remedy
