Hazard
The brake air pipe routing is improper, causing high stress on the pipe when subjected to large vibrations from rough road driving. Continued use in this state may cause cracks in the pipe, leading to air leakage, and in the worst case, crack propagation resulting in reduced braking force.

ブレーキ用エアパイプの取り回しが不適切なため、悪路等の走行による大きな振動を受けると、当該パイプに高応力が発生するものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用をつづけると、当該パイプに亀裂が発生してエアが漏れ、最悪の場合、亀裂が拡大し、制動力が低下するおそれがある。
Remedy
Inspect the air pipe on all vehicles and replace it with the corrective part on vehicles where the corrective part has not been installed.
