Volvo Trucks Fm: Brake Pedal May Be Incorrectly Assembled
Volvo Trucks Brake Pedal Recall Summary Volvo is recalling approximately 19,262 FM and FH truck models because a split pin that holds the brake pedal assembly in place may not have been properly installed during manufacturing. If the pin is missing or loose, the brake pedal's cross shaft could move, which could reduce braking effectiveness. Dealers will inspect affected vehicles and install or secure the split pin as needed.
