    Vehicle description: class 8 heavy duty trucks. The air suspension control valve supply line was not plumbed through an air pressure protection valve. In the event of a failure, there would be loss of air pressure in the 'b' system air reservoir that supplies air pressure for the front steer axle brakes.

    Remedy: Dealers will install the necessary air pressure protection valve.

    Model years: 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998

    NHTSA 96V095000 Reported 771 vehicles potentially affected VOLVO TRUCKS NORTH AMERICA INC

    Model years: 1991

  6. Air (parking brake)

    NHTSA 91V081000 Reported 53 vehicles potentially affected VOLVO GM HEAVY TRUCK CORP

    The bendix mv-2 parking control valve installed in vehicles without a desiccant style air dryer may experience a seal failure. This failure may allow the valve to move from the park position to the release position, allowing the parking brakes to release.
