P&D Driver ?
same tractor or same trailer? or both?
If it was equip. issue, why would you take out the same unit (s) hoping for a different result?

Excellent observation Lv. I had to turn around and go back 2 weeks ago. When I finally got back, [ shut down 10 times on me], the Garage Foreman said " gee, we worked on this all weekend ". I had to bite my tongue, all I said was please make certain you find the problem this time, do you know how dangerous it is to have this happen on I-81 or anywhere else.
 
Ha, one for the DOT score card !!! brakes hanging up ??? shop say no problem just use it !!!
