The short version
Volvo Bus Corporation reported a problem with the parking brake. Here is what owners need to know.
Due a manufacturing error, the guide plate in the park brake control valve may prematurely wear creating a condition that causes the park brake lever to fail to completely apply the parking brakes.
If the parking brakes are not completely applied, the vehicle may unintentionally move, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash or personal injury to pedestrians.
Volvo Bus will notify owners, and dealers will inspect, and if necessary, replace the park brake valve, free of charge.
