The issue

CORROSION ON THE INSIDE OF THE ALUMINUM END-CAP OF THE SPRING BRAKE, CAN RESULT IN SUDDEN FRACTURE OF THE END-CAP WHICH NORMALLY RETAINS THE PARKING/EMERGENCY SPRING. THIS FRACTURE IN TURN WOULD CAUSE A VIOLENT EJECTION OF PARTS OF THE END-CAP AND THE SPRINT ITSELF. THIS CONDITION COULD CAUSE SEVERE INJURIES TO PEOPLE CLOSE TO THE BRAKE AT THE TIME OF FAILURE. ONE SPRING BRAKE FAILURE WOULD PROBABLY CAUSE AUTOMATIC APPLICATION OF THE REMAINING SPRING BRAKES ON THE VEHICLE CREATING A TRAFFIC HAZARD IF THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION.
