The short version
PACCAR INCORPORATED reported a problem with the tank assembly pressure relief devices. Here is what owners need to know.
CERTAIN TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH NEXGEN LIQUID NATURAL GAS (LNG) TANKS ARE BEING RECALLED. THE INTRODUCTION OF WATER INTO THE DISCHARGE SIDE OF BOTH THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY RELIEF VALVES SIMULTANEOUSLY AND SUBSEQUENT FREEZING IN SERVICE CAN RENDER THE VALVES TEMPORARILY INOPERATIVE.
IF NOT INSPECTED THE RISK OF TANK OVER-PRESSURIZATION AND A CATASTROPHIC TANK RUPTURE CAN OCCUR, POTENTIALLY RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
NEXGEN WILL NOTIFY THE CUSTOMER, PERFORM AN INSPECTION, AND PROVIDE INSTRUCTIONS FOR ORDERING AND INSTALLING THE RETROFIT KIT, free of charge.
