Defect

On large trucks, the air circuit for brake operation includes a desiccant regeneration tank that was not sufficiently evaluated for durability. This allows cracks to form in the tank, resulting in an air leak. The leak produces an audible hissing sound and activates the warning buzzer. Continued operation with the leak may reduce brake effectiveness.

Corrective action

Replace the affected tank with a corrected part.
