2024 Kenworth T800 recalls

• Steering#2024732December 3, 2024

  14 units affected

  Issue: On certain trucks, the bolts for the steering arm and/or tie rods may not have been tightened properly. As a result, the bolts could loosen and separate. If this happens, there could be a loss of steering control. Note: This recall only affects certain trucks equipped with 20k steer axles. Safety Risk: A loss of steering control could create the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: PACCAR will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to replace the affected bolts and tighten them properly.

• Brakes#2024121February 23, 2024

  171 units affected

  Issue: On certain trucks, the reservoir tank for the air brake system is too small. In certain situations, this could cause reduced braking. Canadian regulations require enough air reservoir capacity to ensure the brakes work even with heavy use or when there is a partial loss of the air system. Safety Risk: Reduced braking can cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: PACCAR will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to replace or add an additional air reservoir tank, as necessary.

• Suspension#2024038January 25, 2024

  4 units affected

  Issue: On a small number of trucks equipped with a Hendrickson Composilite steerable lift axle, the steering knuckles may not have been assembled properly during production. As a result, oil could leak from the wheel hub and cause the axle spindles to become loose and separate. Safety Risk: Parts that separate from the truck could create a road hazard for others and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Paccar will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the steering knuckles assemblies.

• Seats And Restraints#2023573October 26, 2023

  1,532 units affected

  Issue: On certain trucks, a spacer installed between the seat frame and the seat belt buckle may cause the seat belt to slip and not to work properly in a crash. Safety Risk: A seat belt that doesn't work properly could increase the risk of injury in a crash. Corrective Actions: PACCAR will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to remove the spacer(s) and replace the bolt(s).
