Parking brake

What is wrong: On certain motor coaches equipped with bendix sr-7 spring brake modulating valves, the internal rubber check valve may leak causing a delay in the application of the spring brakes to park the vehicle after the operator pulls the dash valve button.
Risk: This could cause delay or failure in applying the parking brakes which could result in a vehicle roll away, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Prevost is working with bendix to repair these vehicles (please see 07e037). Bendix will install a check valve repair kit for the affected sr-7 spring brake modulating valve free of charge. The recall began on september 14, 2007. Owners may contact bendix at 1‑440‑329‑9000 or prevost at 1‑418‑831‑2046.
