On certain trailers, a brass fitting used to mount the air filter on the service brake air line could crack. This would result in a major air leak in the service brake line between the truck tractor and trailer, causing the trailer service brakes to be inoperative without prior warning and increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the brass fitting with a steel replacement.
