    The involved vehicles were assembled with incorrect plumbing of the copper brake application valve supply air lines. This constitutes a non-compliance to federal motor vehicle safety standard no 121, "air brake systems". As a result, air could leak from the rear brake system.

    Remedy: Dealer will inspect and reconnect any improperly connected air lines at the brake application valve, without charge.
