Motor Coach Industries brake hoses may crack or otherwise fail resulting in an air leak.
The short version
Motor Coach Industries reported a problem with the supply hoses, lines/piping, and fittings. Here is what owners need to know.
The brake hoses may crack or otherwise fail resulting in an air leak. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
A leaking brake hose could cause a delay in the actuation time of the front brake, which would increase vehicle's stopping distance and increase the risk of a crash.
MCI will notify owners to inspect the brake hoses and replace any hoses that are leaking or otherwise damaged, free of charge.
