- Published by: NHTSA \(United States\)
- Campaign number: 82V074000
- Manufacturer: PACCAR, INCORPORATED
- Reported: 1982\-07\-26
- Owners notified: 1982\-09\-25

## What is wrong

THE INVOLVED TRUCKS MAY HAVE BEEN ASSEMBLED WITHOUT THE INSTALLATION OF A SINGLE CHECK VALVE. THIS FAILS TO COMPLY WITH FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 121, "AIR BRAKE SYSTEMS". IN THE EVENT OF A SINGLE FAILURE IN THE REAR AIR SYSTEM, THE LACK OF A CHECK VALVE WOULD ALLOW SIMULTANEOUS LOSS OF AIR FROM BOTH FRONT AND REAR BRAKING SYSTEMS.


## The remedy

DEALER WILL INSTALL A SINGLE CHECK VALVE, IF NECESSARY, WITHOUT CHARGE TO OWNER.


## Notes

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: TRUCKS.SYSTEM: SERVICE BRAKES; AIRBRAKES.CONSEQUENCES OF DEFECT: DEGRADED BRAKING CAPABILITY COULD RESULT IN LOSS OFVEHICLE CONTROL AND AN ACCIDENT.
