• Recall 31989 [USA]: This condition can cause a delay in the application of the spring brakes to park the vehicle after the operator pulls the dash valve button. these conditions can occur without warning, leading to unintended vehicle rollaway, brake drag, or in the case of loss of primary circuit, inability to modulate the spring brakes.
  On certain trucks equipped with parker single check valves (scv) provided by bendix. The defect exists in the parker scv that connects with the supply port of the sr-7 spring brake modulating valve. After prolonged use of the parker scv, the valve body retainer may become excessively worn and eventually break apart. Pieces of the parker scv can become lodged inside the sr-7 spring brake modulating valve, potentially causing either leakage out of the sr-7 valve or preventing air from properly exhausting from the sr-7 valve.
  mack is working with bendix to replace the parker single check valve. The recall began on january 9, 2008. Owners may contact bendix at 1-440-329-9000 or mack at 1-800-528-6586.

• Recall 2008456 [Canada]: Lights and instruments
  On certain vehicles, the headlamp switch may fail causing complete or intermittent loss of headlamp function. Should this occur during hours of darkness, it could result in a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: dealers will replace the headlamp switch.

• Recall 2007264 [Canada]: Brakes
  On certain vehicles, the internal rubber check valve inside the bendix sr-7 spring brake modulating valve can become deformed over time. The effect of this defect is intermittent and presents a potential delay or failure in applying the parking brakes; potentially resulting in a vehicle roll away. Should this occur, the unattended roll away vehicle could strike a bystander or cause property damage. Correction: dealers will install a check valve repair kit, and replace the parker single check valve.

• Recall 2007265 [Canada]: Brakes
  On certain school and transit buses, the parker single check valve (scv) that connects with the supply port of the bendix sr-7 spring brake modulating valve may become excessively worn and eventually break apart. Pieces of the parker scv can become lodge inside the sr-7 valve, possibly causing either leakage out of the sr-7 valve or preventing air from properly exhausting from the sr-7 valve. This condition can cause a delay in the application of the parking brakes, the spring brakes not fully releasing or loss of isolation between the primary and secondary circuits. These conditions can occur without warning, leading to unintended vehicle rollaway, brake drag, or in case of loss of primary circuit, inability to modulate the spring brakes. An unattended roll away vehicle could strike a bystander or cause property damage. Correction: dealers will replace the single check valve (scv).

• Recall 2007339 [Canada]: Other
  On certain trucks, the fifth wheel hitch assembly's lever arm may have been incorrectly installed during the manufacturing process. The lever arm pivot bolt may have been over-tightened which could distort the pivot bolt spacer sleeve and prevent the fifth wheel latch jaw from closing and latching securely around the trailer king pin. This could allow the towed unit to separate from the towing vehicle while underway, potentially causing a crash with injury or death. Correction: dealers will replace the pivot bolt and sleeve with a hex head shoulder bolt and washer.

• Recall 2007368 [Canada]: Steering
  On certain trucks, the bolts that attach the steering gear to the frame may not have been tightened to the specified torque. This could allow the bolts to loosen and fall-out, possibly causing a loss of steering control and a crash with injury or death. Correction: dealers will tighten the bolts to specs.
