2012–2018 Kenworth T880 Recall

Issued May 18, 2017
Issue
Hazard description
Certain vehicles equipped with Neway ADZ Tridem rear suspension may not comply with the brake timing requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 121 - Air Brake Systems. The brake control airline between the two relay valves is plumbed with a 3/8" airline but should be plumbed with a 1/4" line to balance the service brake application timing and meet the requirement of the standard. An oversized airline could cause a delay in brake activation and increase stopping distances, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will update and modify the brake piping of the air brake system.
