Hazard
In the braking system, the welding of the mounting bracket for the air charge pipe that supplies air to the air tank is defective. Continued use in this condition may cause cracks to develop in the pipe due to vehicle vibration, which in the worst case could lead to air leakage and reduced braking force.
