Certain CF6000 and CF7000 vehicles may have been produced with improperly heat treated parking brake rollers which could cause an embrittled condition. Such rollers might fracture without warning when the parking brakes are applied. A roller fracture in one rear brake assembly would reduce parking brake capability. Roller fractures in both rear brakes would result in complete loss of parking brake capability.
