Issue
On certain vehicles that were modified with dual steering controls for use as street sweepers, the brake re-certification was not performed after the modification for the dual steering system. The operation of a vehicle with incorrect air brake apply/release timing may result in reduced braking performance, which could lead to a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install a brake timing kit.
