Cambli is recalling 5 2014-2015 Beverage Industry Trailer units because certain Bendix SR5 spring brake valves were improperly machined, delaying spring brake application while parking.

What's wrong?

The parking brake system on 2014-2015 Cambli Beverage Industry Trailer units uses a Bendix SR-5 spring brake valve to control air pressure to the trailer spring brakes. Those spring brakes are the brakes that hold the trailer when it is parked. The valve is supposed to exhaust air in the right sequence so the springs apply the brakes when the trailer is parked or uncoupled.

On affected trailers, the SR-5 valve was improperly machined. That machining defect can interfere with how the valve moves air through the parking brake system. When the driver sets the parking brakes, the spring brakes can apply later than intended, so the trailer is not held as promptly as it should be.

An owner or driver can hear or see air leaking from the supply, or red, gladhand when the trailer is uncoupled from the tractor. After the valve repair is done, a green or black tie wrap is fastened to the valve.
