"\(KW\): Certain Kenworth K270 and K370 Battery Electric Vehicle \(BEV\) chassis equipped with certain DANA cradle harnesses may intermittently lose electrical continuity at one or more C40 connector pins. This can occur without warning and cause loss of propulsion, increasing the risk of a crash. Certified BEV technicians will inspect the C40 connector and replace the cradle harness, if necessary. This safety recall defect is identical to 25KWD and applies to certain Canadian chassis added on 07/02/2026. \(PB\): Certain Peterbilt Model 220 Battery Electric Vehicle \(BEV\) chassis equipped with certain DANA cradle harnesses may intermittently lose electrical continuity at one or more C40 connector pins. This can occur without warning and cause loss of propulsion, increasing the risk of a crash. Certified BEV technicians will inspect the C40 connector and replace the cradle harness, if necessary. This safety recall defect is identical to 25PBD and applies to certain Canadian chassis added on 07/02/2026."
- [25KWD 25PBD](/bulletins/11035096.md), 2026-07-20, Service campaign: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM. Additional US chassis have been added, along with additional Canadian chassis under identical safety recall 26PACB.

Newly designed fuel injectors are available for EPA2021 compliant PACCAR MX\-series engines to optimize engine performance. Injectors must be replaced as a full set \(6 injectors\) and associated software must be updated at the same time.
- [E290](/bulletins/11008570.md), 2024-10-05, Service bulletin: FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM. FIX\-AS\-FAIL Updated to include EPA2024 compliant engines. Fuel Filters must be changed before first cleaning. EPA2021 injector cleaning is referenced in RMI for certain injector faults. Complete the procedures in E290. Discard any previous versions of E290 procedures – always use the most current document from the link in the bulletin.
- [23PBH](/bulletins/10245638.md), 2023-12-02, Service bulletin: FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL. Safety Recall Parts are now available to remedy this issue. Certain model year 2021 to 2024, 567 and 579 vehicles built from 06/22/2020 through 06/16/2023 were equipped with air tank bracket G11\-6439\-009mounted behind a fuel tank without a frame spacer. The air tank mounting U\-bolt tips may be different lengths and could contact the fuel tank, which can result in a hole and the potential for a fuel leak. Leaking fuel may lead to an increased risk of a fire.
- [23PBH](/bulletins/10244480.md), 2023-11-10, Service bulletin: FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL.

The air tank mounting U\-bolts are different lengths and may contact the fuel tank, which can result in a hole and the potential for a fuel leak. Leaking fuel may lead to an increased risk of a fire. At this time, parts are not yet available to complete the necessary repairs. Once parts become available, this bulletin will be updated.
