Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? A CLAAS ARION 400 tractor may not hold its brake power correctly. The towable mass in the hydraulic line is wrong.

What's happening? The tractor could roll away on slopes or when loading a trailer. This can happen even when the driver is not in the seat.

Does this affect me? If you own or use an ARION 400 in France, Luxembourg, Sweden, or Slovenia, this could affect you.

What should I do? Stop using the tractor until a mechanic checks the brake system. Ask your dealer or a qualified repair shop for help.
