Kenworth dv-2 air governor was misassembled with a blank plug instead of a breather.
The short version
PACCAR INCORPORATED reported a problem with the service brakes, air. Here is what owners need to know.
THE DV-2 AIR GOVERNOR WAS MISASSEMBLED WITH A BLANK PLUG INSTEAD OF A BREATHER. WITHOUT THE BREATHER INSTALLED, THE AIR GOVERNOR MAY NOT BE ABLE TO DETECT THE LOSS OF AIR PRESSURE IN THE AIR SYSTEM DURING NORMAL USE.
ALTHOUGH THE OPERATOR IS WARNED OF LOW AIR PRESSURE BY AUDIBLE AND VISUAL LOW AIR PRESSURE WARNING ALARMS, A VEHICLE CRASH OR FIRE IS POSSIBLE IF THESE WARNINGS ARE NOT HEEDED.
KENWORTH WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND REPAIR THE VEHICLES BY REPLACING THE BLANK PLUG WITH A BREATHER AND INSPECT FOR PROPER FUNCTION FREE OF CHARGE.
