UD Trucks Corporation manufactures medium-duty Commercial Trucks. “Modifications to the vehicles may have resulted in loss of isolation between the primary and secondary air brake system.” The consequence of this failure can result in a total loss of brakes. Since the systems are not isolated, If an air leak is experienced in one system, the other system will also be affected. Brake loss can lead to a loss of control and an increased risk of a crash.
