The short version
Proterra Inc. reported a problem with the service brakes. Here is what owners need to know.
The mesh cap covering the airline for the tow fitting can be clogged with road debris in inclement weather, possibly resulting in a build up of air pressure in the rear brake system.
A build up of air pressure can cause the brakes to drag and possibly overheat, increasing the risk of fire.
Proterra will notify owners, and dealers will install an additional shield to the tow fitting that protects the mesh cap, free of charge.
