Kenworth affected trucks are built with a driveshaft that may not transmit power to the wheels due to weld failure from corrosion.
The short version
PACCAR Incorporated reported a problem with the driveline driveshaft. Here is what owners need to know.
The affected trucks are built with a driveshaft that may not transmit power to the wheels due to weld failure from corrosion.
If the weld fails causing a loss of power to the rear wheels, the vehicle operator may be unable to move the vehicle, or may experience deceleration if the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
PACCAR will notify owners, and dealers will replace the defective driveshafts, free of charge.
