THE TRAILER BRAKE HAND CONTROL VALVE ON THESE VEHICLES MAY CONTAIN A PRESSURE LIMITER SET AT APPROXIMATELY 30 psi. THE HAND CONTROLLED BRAKE VALVE SHOULD SUPPLY FULL SYSTEM PRESSURE TO THE TRAILER BRAKES. THIS COULD RESULT IN LONGER STOPPING DISTANCES AND A POTENTIAL FOR A VEHICLE CRASH. CORRECTION: CORRECT HAND CONTROLLED BRAKE VALVE WILL BE INSTALLED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.
