## What is wrong

On certain trucks, the air tank mounting brackets may crack, which could allow the tank to detach from the vehicle.  An air tank separating from the vehicle could strike another vehicle, a stationary object, or a bystander.  As well, loss of an air tank would cause a loss of service brakes, which could increase stopping distances, possibly causing a crash.  These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will replace the air tank mounting brackets.
