What happened

Autocar Industries is recalling certain 2012 Xpert medium-duty class 7 vehicles manufactured between October 17, 2011, and June 18, 2012, that have both left and right-hand driving positions. The negative cable ground stud and/or wiring harness may interfere with the right-hand driver's side brake pedal, preventing full depression of the pedal and reducing braking capability.

This interference could increase stopping distances and raise the risk of a crash. All affected vehicles have already been corrected as of September 28, 2012. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Autocar Industries, Inc., at 1-765-489-5499.
