What is wrong
THE INVOLVED VEHICLES DO NOT CONFORM TO FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 121, "AIR BRAKE SYSTEMS". DUE TO THE USE OF A LOAD PROPORTIONING VALVE IN THE BRAKE SYSTEM, THE BRAKE ACTIVATION AND RELEASE TIME IN AN UNLOADED CONDITION, MAY NOT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS. IN ADDITION, A DOUBLE CHECK VALVE REQUIRED ON A TWO AIR TANK SYSTEM WAS INADVERTENTLY OMITTED.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
THE LOAD PROPORTIONING VALVE WILL BE REMOVED AND THE SYSTEM WILL BE "REPLUMBED" IN ORDER TO MEET SAFETY STANDARD REQUIREMENTS.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
