Kenworth parameter in the Electronic Service Analysis (ESA) tool was mistakenly switched to disable the start-in-gear protection feature.
The short version
PACCAR Incorporated reported a problem with the electrical system software. Here is what owners need to know.
A parameter in the Electronic Service Analysis (ESA) tool was mistakenly switched to disable the start-in-gear protection feature. Because of this, the vehicles may be started when the automatic transmission is in gear.
If the vehicle is started while it is in gear, it may move unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a crash.
PACCAR will notify owners and dealers will correct the ESA parameter, free of charge.
