Defect:
On certain trucks equipped with hydraulic brakes, there may be a defect in the anchor bolt of some bosch model #305 parking brake assemblies. a different coating was applied to the bolt which did not meet paccar specifications. this could reduce the fatigue life of the bolt and lead to premature failure.
