Found this on a FB London Aire forum.
Greetings to all, I just learned a very valuable lesson that cost me a bundle but will save you from a huge expense.
All 2018 and older coaches with comfort steer, there is an update from Frieghtliner for around $750.00 installed, this update is a electrical harness that shuts down the power steering pump while the parking brake is on during idle, without it, the pump keeps constant pressure on the system including all power steering hoses… I learned the hard way..$600 tow bill, and $4000.00 to replace the 45 foot hose.. ask your local oasis Frieghtliner dealer about this.
