Defect
On small truck mixer variants, the brake vacuum hose geometry is incorrect, allowing routing variation to cause the hose to be assembled in a kinked condition. This restricts vacuum supply, causing the brake warning lamp to illuminate and the warning buzzer to sound earlier than intended. Continued operation may result in reduced braking effectiveness.
Corrective action
Replace the affected hose on all vehicles with a corrected/revised part.
