Paccar Incorporated air harness from the treadle valve on the affected vehicles was routed in a manner that can cause the air brake lines to be pinched between the cab and the electronic clutch actuator of the Eaton Ultrashift transmission.
The short version
PACCAR Incorporated reported a problem with the supply hoses, lines/piping, and fittings. Here is what owners need to know.
The air harness from the treadle valve on the affected vehicles was routed in a manner that can cause the air brake lines to be pinched between the cab and the electronic clutch actuator of the Eaton Ultrashift transmission. Significant movement between the cab and transmission can cause progressive wear and an eventual leak in the air lines.
Air lines which leak can cause reduced brake function, which may result in a crash.
Kenworth will notify owners, and dealers will repair the vehicles free of charge.
