Notice (English)

On certain vehicles equipped with air disc brakes, the brake caliper mounting bolts may be incorrectly torqued. This could result in the caliper bolts loosening, which could lead to the caliper detaching. Insufficiently torqued fasteners may not provide adequate clamping force between the brake caliper and brake anchor plate potentially resulting in reduced brake effectiveness, which would result in increased stopping distances, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Daimler Trucks of North America Service Facilities will inspect the bolts, and repair as necessary.

Avis (français)

Dans certains véhicules munis de certains types de freins à disque à air comprimé, les boulons de montage d'étrier de frein pourraient avoir été mal serrés. Par conséquent, les boulons d'étrier pourraient se desserrer, ce qui pourrait causer le détachement de l'étrier. Des dispositifs de fixation mal serrés pourraient ne pas offrir la force de serrage adéquate entre l'étrier de frein et la plaque d'ancrage de frein, ce qui pourrait réduire l'efficace des freins. Cela augmenterait les distances de freinage, ce qui augmenterait les risques d'accident pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Mesure corrective : Les installations d'entretien de Daimler Trucks of North America devront inspecter les boulons, ainsi qu'effectuer des réparations au besoin.
