Motor Coach Industries affected vehicles may experience a multiplexing programming error that will not provide any visual or audible warnings if the vehicle's primary service brake air reservoir system has low pressure.
The short version
Motor Coach Industries reported a problem with the service brakes, air. Here is what owners need to know.
The affected vehicles may experience a multiplexing programming error that will not provide any visual or audible warnings if the vehicle's primary service brake air reservoir system has low pressure. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
If the driver is unaware that the service brakes have low air pressure, the brakes may apply automatically, increasing the risk of a crash.
MCI will notify owners, and dealers will correct the programming of the multiplexing system, free of charge.
