If you purchase one on a W 24 chassis you can avoid the brake recall issues altogether

? There is no brake recall issue if the recall was completed! And if it was not completed it will be done N/C.
I agree, the 8.1/Alison combination is hard to beat. GM ceased engine production in DEC 2011. Thanks.

There have been reports of brake issues here after the recall. If I were to ever buy another WH chassis it would be the W24. The W22 failed me to many times.

I just searched the Open Road Forum (Workhorse brake) and did not find a post substantiating you statement? I have not seen anything on the Workhorse Forum other than reports of "no caliper issues after the recall". I have 15k miles after recall with no issues and no problems before the recall. Also have had no problems with my W20 chassis.
What personal problem do you have with Workhorse? Thanks.

My personnal problem with WH was buying one in 04 with several total brake failures endangering my family and everyone else on the road. They had no reguard for anyones safty saying when they cool down they should be ok. There was also a post here last week with sticking brakes again after the recall was done. I finally decided I would not subject my familys lives to WH anymore. I like to know when I hit the brakes they work. Sold it!!
