2006 Kenworth T300 recalls, newest first

May 21, 2007NHTSA 07V213000293 vehicles potentially affected

Electrical system

Summary: On certain trucks equipped with cummins isc or paccar PX8 engines, the jumper wire between the grid heater relay to the fuse block has been routed in such a way that the potential exists for it to rub against the radiator support.
Consequence: The suspect wire is down stream of the fuse; this chaff point could cause the 250 amp charge wire to arc, potentially causing a fire.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the routing of the jumper wire. If the wire is not routed correctly, it will be inspected for rubbing or chaffing and replaced if necessary free of charge. The recall began on June 22, 2007. Owners may contact kenworth at 425-828-5440.

Power train › Automatic transmission

Summary: On certain trucks, the wiring, parts, or transmission programming required for the auto neutral feature to function as designed were either not installed, connected, or programmed properly.
Consequence: If any of these conditions exists, the transmission will not automatically shift into neutral when left in drive with the parking brake set engaged. The vehicle could move without warning increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the affected vehicles to ensure the auto neutral feature functions properly and, if needed, will make the necessary repairs free of charge. The recall began on may 9, 2007. Owners may contact kenworth at 425-828-5440.

Summary: An incorrect switch was installed in the cruise control system on certain model T300 trucks.

Parking brake › Driveline › Hydraulic

Summary: On certain trucks equipped with hydraulic brakes, there may be a defect in the anchor bolt of some bosch model #305 parking brake assemblies. A different coating was applied to the bolt which did not meet paccar specifications. This could reduce the fatigue life of the bolt and lead to premature failure.
Consequence: If this bolt were to fail, the truck could roll away while parked without warning, which could result in a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the parking brake assembly and replace the defective bolts free of charge. Peterbilt's recall began on November 4, 2005; and kenworth began on November 4, 2005. Owners may contact kenworth at 1-425-828-5440 or peterbilt at 1-940-591-4201.
