Defect

On certain motor homes equipped with bendix parker check valves, the parker brass check valve which connects to the supply port of the bendix sr-7 spring brake can fail.

Safety risk

This condition can cause a delay in the application of the spring brakes to park the vehicle after the operator pulls the dash valve button. These conditions can occur without warning, leading to unintended vehicle rollaway, brake drag, or in the case of loss of primary circuit, inability to modulate the spring brakes.

Remedy

Dealers will replace the brass check valve free of charge. The recall began on september 9, 2007. Owners may contact newell coach at 1-888-963-9355 or bendix at1- 440-329-9000.
