The short version

CATERPILLAR INC. reported a problem with the exterior lighting. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

Certain side marker lamps and/or reflective tape were not applied to these vehicles, which have a length of 30 feet or longer. Thus, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No.

WHY IT MATTERS

Missing side marker lamps and/or reflective tape reduces the visibility of the truck to others, which increases the risk of a vehicle crash.

WHAT TO DO

Caterpillar will notify owners, and dealers will repair the vehicles free of charge.
