The problem
THE BRAKE PEDAL LINKAGE IS ATTACHED TO THE SERVICE BRAKE VALVE PUSHROD WITH A CLEVIS PIN. THE TWO COTTER PINS THAT RETAIN THE CLEVIS PIN MAY NOT HAVE BEEN INSTALLED DURING ASSEMBLY.
Risk
IF THE COTTER PINS WERE NOT INSTALLED, THE CLEVIS PIN MAYFALL OUT DURING BRAKE USE, CAUSING THE BRAKE PEDAL LINKAGE TO SEPARATE FROM THESERVICE BRAKE PUSHROD, RESULTING IN LOSS OF BRAKES AND A POSSIBLE VEHICLEACCIDENT.
What owners should do
INSPECT THE BRAKE PEDAL ASSEMBLY AND INSTALL COTTER PINS TO THE CLEVIS PIN IF THEY ARE MISSING.
