Reported risk: Issue:
On certain trucks, the steering gear may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the steering gear could break and there could be a sudden increase in steering effort.
Safety Risk:
A sudden increase in steering effort could 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 the serial number on the steering gear and, if necessary, replace it.
Verify each fact at the issuing agency before acting. Recall scope, affected lots, and remediation instructions may be updated by the agency after our last sync.
