THE PHILLIPS INDUSTRIES GLADHANDS ON THESE VEHICLES MAY HAVE BEEN ASSEMBLED WITH CONNECTOR PLATE SCREWS THAT WERE AFFECTED BY HYDROGEN EMBRITTLEMENT. A FAILURE OF THESE FASTENERS COULD RESULT IN THE GLADHAND BECOMING DETACHED FROM THE TRAILER, WHICH COULD THEN CAUSE A SUDDEN APPLICATION OF THE TRAILER SPRING BRAKES DUE TO LOSS OF AIR SUPPLY TO THE TRAILER. CORRECTION: GLADHANDS WILL BE INSPECTED AND SUSPECT FASTENERS WILL BE REPLACED.
