In owners' words
What Kountry Star owners report
Recent service brakes complaints filed with NHTSA, shortened. Personal details are removed.
The BrakeSync valve is located too close to the turbo charger. In hot weather and slow traffic or high engine load as when climbing long grades enough heat builds up to cause the high pressure hose from the air supply tank to the regulator valve to blow.
