Bendix Foot Brake Valve Assembly: Service Brakes, Air recall
NHTSA campaign 23E011000 · 11K units potentially affected · filed Feb 10, 2023
What's wrong
Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems LLC (Bendix) is recalling certain Foot Brake Valve Assemblies, model Medium-Duty Vehicle Pedal A, with part number G901288. When the brake pedal is fully applied and then released rapidly, the pedal plunger that connects the brake pedal to the brake valve may become disconnected, causing the brakes to fail.
Why it matters
Brake failure can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Vehicle manufacturers will install a pedal restraint bracket, free of charge. Bendix notified the vehicle manufacturer on April 5, 2023. Owners may contact Bendix customer service at 1-877-345-9526.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
