THE 2 REAR AIR BRAKE HOSES TO THE AIR CANISTERS ON A 2004 FREIGHTLINER RV CHASSIS HAVE RUBBED TOGETHER ENOUGH TO MAKE A PIN HOLE LEAK IN ONE OF THEM AND A PARTIAL WEAR-THROUGH IN THE OTHER. WITH A WARNING FROM OTHER USERS ON AN RV FORUM, A PHYSICAL INSPECTION CAUGHT THIS PROBLEM BEFORE A BRAKE FAILURE HAPPENED AND POSSIBLE PROPERTY DAMAGE OR LOSS OF LIFE COULD OCCUR. BOTH OF THESE HOSES MUST BE REPLACED AND THE HOSES MUST BE RE-ROUTED TO KEEP THIS FROM RECURRING. *TR
