Rings securing the valves may corrode over time after exposure to water, causing the ring to fail and the pressure relief valve to open, reducing the water pressure available for fire fighting.

Fontaine Modification is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 Freightliner M2 vehicles converted to be equipped with dual steering wheels by Fontaine Modification between March 13, 2014 and September 1, 2015. In the affected vehicles, a locating pin in the dual steering linkage may break or fall out resulting in the momentary loss of steering or steering lock up.
The contact owns a 2015 Freightliner M2. The contact stated that overnight the braking system lost air pressure which activated the alert. Upon inspection, it was discovered that the lower brake air pressure hose clamp head had made contact with the radiator causing the braking system air pressure hard line to become damaged and causing air pressure to leak from the braking system. The failure was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The local dealer was not yet contacted. The failure mileage was 22,800.
