Affected:

Defect:
On certain trucks equipped with bendix sr-7 spring brake modulating valves, the internal rubber check valve may leak causing a delay in the application of the spring brakes to park the vehicle after the operator pulls the dash valve button.

Component:
Trailer hitches:fifth wheel assembly
Manufactured:
01/08/2006 - 06/28/2007

Defect:
On certain trucks equipped with a saf holland simplex fifth wheel, the lever arm pivot bolt may have been over tightened. an over tightened pivot bolt can distort the pivot bolt spacer sleeve, which may prevent the fifth wheel latch jaw from closing and latching securely around the trailer king pin.

Correction:
Dealers will replace the pivot bolt and sleeve with a hex head shoulder bolt and washer free of charge. the recall began on january 28, 2008. owners may contact mack trucks at 1-800-528-6586.
