Certain vehicle configuration which includes an AG400 rear suspension, long stroke brake chambers, and wide base tires may develop an increase in lateral and vertical axle movement. This movement may cause part or parts of the brake assembly to develop fatigue cracks, possibly resulting in the failure of part or parts within the brake assembly. A failure may reduce vehicle brake performance, increasing the risk of a crash causing personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will affect repairs.
