## What is wrong

Autocar, LLC \(Autocar\) is recalling certain 2013\-2016 Xpeditor vehicles equipped with auxiliary axles and 36/36 rear brake chambers.  Over\-braking can cause excessive vibration and cause the S\-cam tube bolts to become loose and allow the brakes to unexpectedly engage.

## The remedy

Autocar will contact owners and dealers will change the rear brake chambers and the S\-cam brackets, free of charge. The recall began on March 17, 2017.  Owners may contact Autocar customer service at 1\-765\-489\-5499.  Autocar's number for this recall is ACX\-1701.
