Service brakes, air

What is wrong: On certain heavy duty class 8 trucks, there is a slack on the brake assembly's adjuster and it is interfering with the axle housing.
Risk: This interference leads to a reduction in braking capabilities on the right side of the vehicle as the brake "shoes" become worn, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: The rear brake assemblies were replaced. All vehicles have been repaired.
