Bendix recall: Service brakes, air
What is wrong
Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems LLC (Bendix) is recalling certain Foot Brake Valve Assemblies, model Medium-Duty Vehicle Pedal A, with part number G901288. When the brake pedal is fully applied and then released rapidly, the pedal plunger that connects the brake pedal to the brake valve may become disconnected, causing the brakes to fail.
What could happen
Brake failure can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Vehicle manufacturers will install a pedal restraint bracket, free of charge. Bendix notified the vehicle manufacturer on April 5, 2023. Owners may contact Bendix customer service at 1-877-345-9526.
