Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems, LLC "Bendix" is recalling certain SC-3 Single Check Valves, part number K094964. The retainer may not be properly seated in the retainer groove, causing an air leak within the brake system. As such, these check valves fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard "FMVSS" number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
An air leak in the brake system can affect braking ability and increase the risk of a crash.
Bendix will notify vehicle manufacturers, and replace the SC-3 single check valves, free of charge. Owners may contact Bendix customer service at 1-877-345-9526.
