NISSAN DIESEL IS RECALLING 10 MY 2008 UD3300 TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH ARVIN MERITOR 2-SPEED REAR AXLE. THE LENGTH OF THE AIR BRAKE HOSE INSTALLED BETWEEN THE RELAY VALVE AND QUICK RELEASE VALVE FOR THE LEFT REAR AIR BRAKE ASSEMBLY IS INCORRECT AND MAY INCREASE THE RESISTANCE IN THE AIR SUPPLY.
INCORRECT LENGTH OF AIR BRAKE HOSE WILL INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH.
DEALERS WILL HAVE THE AIR BRAKE HOSE REPLACED BETWEEN THE RELAY VALVE AND THE QUICK RELEASE VALVE WITH THE CORRECT LENGTH HOSE FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON OR BEFORE MAY 4, 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN DIESEL AT 972-756-5500.
