Recalled Vehicles:
1994 Oshkosh Vc26rd; 1994 Oshkosh Vc26rr; 1994 Oshkosh Vc29rd; 1994 Oshkosh Vc29rr
Component: Service Brakes, Air:supply:governor
Manufactured by: Oshkosh Truck Corporation
Affected Units:: 22
Recall Summary:
Air compressor governor sensing line does not sense both front and rear brake system reservoir pressure. A front brake system air leak will not be sensed by the governor and the compressor will fail to resupply the front air system causing a reduction of the front brake system performance.
How to Fix:
Dealers will relocate the one way check valve in the inlet air line to the rear service tank and a pressure protection valve will be added to allow the governor to sense both front and rear brake system reservoir pressure.
