| Campaign | Reported | Part | Problem | Vehicles |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 98V-255 | October 14, 1998 | Suspension (front, springs, air suspension, lines and fittings) | Vehicle description: class 8 heavy duty trucks. The air suspension control valve supply line was not plumbed through an air pressure protection valve.

The obstructed exhaust prevents the relay valve control air pressure from venting after a differential braking traction event. | 771 |
