- 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.

Has your Kenworth been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Kenworth dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
