## What is wrong

BUSES MAY HAVE BEEN BUILT WITH AN INCORRECT TYPE OF       STEEL TUBING IN THE INTERMEDIATE REAR SERVICE BRAKE LINES WHICH MAY LEAK OR      BREAK DURING APPLICATION OF THE BRAKES.                                                                                                                           CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: IF A BRAKE LINE LEAKED, REAR BRAKES COULD QUIT WORKING,   INCREASING STOPPING DISTANCE, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.


## The remedy

REPLACE BRAKE LINES.


## Notes

SYSTEM: HYDRAULIC BRAKE TUBING. VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: HEAVY\-DUTY BUS CHASSIS WITH 255" WHEELBASES AND HYDRAULICBRAKES.
