- Summary
- A stop light switch on the brake treadle valve and a cruise control dump valve switch were omitted during assembly or both switches were installed but were not wired correctly.
- Consequence
- If a loss of air pressure occurs in either front or rear brake system, the result of these omissions is that the cruise control, if turned on, would not disengage when the service brake was applied and the brake lights would not illuminate, increasing the potential for a vehicle accident.
- Remedy
- Dealers will install a second stop light switch (wired in parallel) and a second cruise control dump valve switch (wired in series) into the treadle valve.
- Notes
- System: brakes; air systems; pedals; linkages and valves.vehicle description: heavy duty truck chassis.note: owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time,should contact oshkosh at 1-800-648-9486.

Has your Oshkosh been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Oshkosh dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
