Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems is recalling approximately 5,668 Knorr-Bresme 22/24-57 brake chambers sold as replacement parts for certain buses. The affected components, identified by part numbers K068622 and K038830N00, may have been manufactured incorrectly, which can lead to an air leak. Bendix is offering to replace these defective brake chambers with new units free of charge.
An air leak in the brake chamber can prevent the parking brake from releasing properly or cause it to engage while driving. This can lead to the brakes overheating, which significantly increases the risk of a fire.
Bendix will provide new brake chambers to replace the defective units.
Sold as replacement parts for certain buses; manufactured by Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems, LLC.
