The hazard

Certain trailers equipped with Sealco Spring Brake Control Valves, part number 110800 manufactured between September 1, 1997 and April 1 2000. These valves are subject to a corrosion failure of the snap ring, which retains the guide pin. Such a failure will cause an unintentional application of the spring brakes. Correction: Sealco will provide a prevention kit to end use fleets.
