Issue

On certain refrigerated trailers, a plug inserted into the brass tee installed in the road-side front brake chamber service port may not have been properly tightened. This could cause an air leak which would diminish the service brake pressure resulting in increased braking distances, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the plug inserted into the brass tee and tighten as necessary or complete removal of the brass tee from the circuit entirely.
