SAFETY RECALL NOTICE
Recall 18E-025
TO: [CUSTOMER]
ZF is conducting a safety recall, filed with the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), to address a defect that exists in certain ZF axles that incorporate radial air disk brake calipers manufactured by Knorr-Bremse. The issue may create noise at the location of the axle and, if undetected, may lead to reduced service or parking brake function and/or a sudden loss of tire pressure, increasing the risk of a collision.
Owners of potentially affected vehicles should be notified about the recall and remedy. There is no cost to owners for this recall.
ZF is coordinating with Knorr-Bremse to provide a rebushing kit at no charge to repair the brake calipers in recalled vehicles and will compensate [CUSTOMER] for time spent on the remedy. Further details regarding the recall remedy and compensation plan will be provided.
As a reminder, it is a violation of Federal law for you to sell or lease axles that incorporate radial air disk brake calipers covered by this notification until the recall has been performed. Substantial civil penalties apply to violations of this law.
Your ongoing assistance and support of this recall is appreciated.
