Defect
The clearance between the nylon brake air line tubing and the exhaust pipe heat shield is insufficient. Continued use allows the tubing to melt from heat exposure. In the worst case, brake system air pressure drops below the required level and the emergency brake activates.
Corrective action
Inspect all vehicles. Replace any heat-damaged tubing with the corrected part. On vehicles with no heat damage, cut the tubing to the correct length and add mounting brackets and retaining clamps.
