Service brakes, air

What is wrong
Air brake fittings and air brake hoses on the brake actuators can break because of insufficient vertical clearance under the air reservoir.
Risk
Such a break would cause the trailer to stop abruptly because the spring brake would be actuated, increasing the risk of a vehicle accident.
Remedy
All 12 vehicles have been remedied by providing additional clearance between the air reservoir and fittings and hoses on the brake actuators.
