As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
Safety risk

Manufacturer remedy
Dealers will correct the ABS computer connections, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 05, 2024. Owners may contact Lode-King customer service at 1-204-325-4345 or 1-866-797-0669 (toll free).
