On certain vehicles, the rearview mirror switch (mounted on the dashboard) may overheat, causing the plastic to melt. An overheated switch may not allow rearview mirror remote adjustability and, as such, the driver may not have full use of the mirrors. In addition, excessive heat can cause smoke within the instrument panel, which could distract the vehicle operator and result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect the rearview mirror switch and install a relay wiring harness. Switches that show signs of overheating will be replaced.

On certain school and transit buses, the Parker single check valve (SCV) that connects with the supply port of the Bendix SR-7 spring brake modulating valve may become excessively worn and eventually break apart. Pieces of the Parker SCV can become lodge inside the SR-7 valve, possibly causing either leakage out of the SR-7 valve or preventing air from properly exhausting from the SR-7 valve. This condition can cause a delay in the application of the parking brakes, the spring brakes not fully releasing or loss of isolation between the primary and secondary circuits. These conditions can occur without warning, leading to unintended vehicle rollaway, brake drag, or in case of loss of primary circuit, inability to modulate the spring brakes. An unattended roll away vehicle could strike a bystander or cause property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the single check valve (SCV).
