Recall campaigns

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC 99V021000 1999-02-12 26 affected

Defect

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: MOTOR HOMES EQUIPPED WITH TAG AXLES. THERE IS REDUCED BRAKING ABILITY ON THE REAR AXLE DUE TO THE TAG AXLE ABS SENSORS READING "NO TIRE/WHEEL ROTATION," UNDER HEAVY BRAKING CONDITIONS. THE SENSORS DETECT THAT THE WHEEL ROTATION HAS CEASED AND THEN STOPS SENDING A SIGNAL TO THE ABS COMPUTER.

Consequence

THE VEHICLES COULD HAVE REDUCED BRAKING ABILITY AND INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES ON THE REAR AXLE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH.

Remedy

DEALERS WILL DELETE THE ABS ON THE TAG AXLE (ONLY), BY REMOVING THE SENSORS AND WIRING HARNESS.
