Peterbilt brake lights may not illuminate when the brakes are applied.
The short version
PACCAR Incorporated reported a problem with the brake lights switch. Here is what owners need to know.
The brake lights may not illuminate when the brakes are applied. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
If the brake lights do not illuminate when the brakes are applied, other drivers will be unaware the vehicle is stopping, which can increase the risk of a crash.
PACCAR will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace any brake light switches with date code 08-01760, free of charge.
