- What is wrong
- On certain street sweepers, as the brake pads wear, the brake calipers on the rear axle can come into contact with a bracket on the chassis. This causes the caliper to deflect during brake application, introducing a bending moment into the caliper mounting bolts. The mounting bolt can eventually break allowing the caliper to rotation out of position, causing a loss of braking function on the rear axle.
- Risk
- This condition increases the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers will modify the braking system on these vehicles. Owner notification is expected to begin during march or april 2003. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact epg/athey at 1‑847‑741‑5370.
