2008–2009 Lodal EVO recall: brakes
⚠️ What's wrong
Lodal is recalling 19 my 2008-2009 EVO trucks equipped with certain haldex quick release valves (qrv). The rubber diaphragm inside the qrv may experience delamination resulting in significant levels of air pressure leakage past and/or through the diaphragm, or the development of a bubble in the diaphragm which may trap air pressure in the valve and not allow the service brakes to release.
💥 The risk
Malfunction of the air brake system could result in a vehicle crash.
