Issue
On certain buses, the plunger within the Bendix E-10 brake valve could fracture during brake application, resulting in reduced brake pedal angle and travel. This could limit the driver’s ability to deliver full brake pressure, which could increase stopping distance, possibly causing a crash resulting in property damage and/or personal injury. Also, the brake plunger could become stuck and prevent the release of the service brake. Correction: Dealers will replace the brake valve plunger.
