INCREASED BRAKE EXCITATION IN A CERTAIN VEHICLE CONFIGURATION WHICH INCLUDES BENDIX DRUM BRAKES, WIDE BASE LOW PROFILE SINGLE TIRES, AND AN AG400 OR AG460 REAR SUSPENSION, DUE TO ITS UNIQUE BRAKE CLOCKING AND CAM TUBE LENGTH, CAN CAUSE FATIGUE AND CRACKING TO BRAKE ASSEMBLY COMPONENTS.

|---|---|
| 08V485000 | 2008-09-24. SUSPENSION. PACCAR IS RECALLING 130 MY 2004-2009 T2000, T800, T600, W900 AND T660 KENWORTH TRUCKS BUILT WITH AN AG400 REAR SUSPENSION, LONG STROKE BRAKE CHAMBERS, AND WIDE BASE TIRES (SUPER SINGLES). THESE VEHICLES MAY DEVELOP AN INCREASE IN LATERAL AND VERTICAL AXLE MOVEMENT. THIS MOVEMENT MAY CAUSE PART OR PARTS OF THE BRAKE ASSEMBLY (BRAKE CAM TUBE SUPPORT, BRAKE CHAMBER BRACKET, BRAKE CHAMBER, BRAKE SPIDER) TO DEVELOP FATIGUE CRACKS, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN THE FAILURE OF THE PART OR PARTS WITHIN THE BRAKE ASSEMBLY. Built 2003-07-07 to 2008-09-11. |
| 05V570000 | 2005-12-22. ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING. ON CERTAIN TRACTORS EQUIPPED WITH CATERPILLAR DIESEL ENGINES, THE VARIABLE VALVE ACTUATION OIL LINE MAY WEAR AGAINST THE SHARP EDGE OF THE CYLINDER HEAD IF NOT POSITIONED CORRECTLY. Built 2003-04-09 to 2005-12-14. |
| 05V189000 | 2005-04-28. SUSPENSION. ON CERTAIN HEAVY DUTY CLASS 8 TRUCKS, THE SUSPENSION HAS TRANSVERSE BEAM CASTINGS THAT MAY FRACTURE UNDER NORMAL LOADS. IF A CASTING BREAKS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELING ON A ROADWAY THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR PIECES OF THE CASTING TO BECOME PROJECTILES AND THE SUSPENSION'S TRANSVERSE BEAM MAY DROP DOWN LOW ENOUGH TO CONTACT THE ROAD SURFACE. Built 2004-01-01 to 2004-12-31. |
| 04V606000 | 2004-12-23. LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:HOOD:LATCH. ON CERTAIN TRUCKS, A LOCKING TAB IN THE HOOD LOCK CYLINDER WAS IMPROPERLY LOCATED PREVENTING THE CYLINDER LOCK FROM ENGAGING. THE HOOD LOCK CYLINDER IS DESIGNED TO SUPPORT THE HOOD ONCE IT IS RAISED FOR ACCESS TO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. Built 2004-11-22 to 2004-12-07. |
| 04V580000 | 2004-12-10. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING. ON CERTAIN TRUCKS, THE POWER FEED HARNESS P92-1993 TERMINALS WERE NOT PROPERLY CRIMPED. Built 2004-08-10 to 2004-10-19. |
| 04V410000 | 2004-08-19. STRUCTURE. ON CERTAIN TRUCKS, THE BRACKET, USED TO SUPPORT THE BATTERY BOX AND STEP, CAN CRACK. Built 2003-11-01 to 2004-02-20. |
| 2009314 | 2009-10-29. Brakes. Certain vehicles may suffer cracking of various brake assembly components (i.e. brake cam tube mounting flanges, brake air chamber bracket, brake air chamber, brake spider). Over time, this cracking can cause a complete fracture of the cam tube, which could increase stopping distances and decrease parking brake hold capability. A reduction of braking capability could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect the rear axle brake assembly, replace cracked rear axle brake components where required, and install cam tube support brackets on all rear axle wheel ends. |
|---|---|
| 2009247 | 2009-08-19. Engine. On certain vehicles equipped with a Caterpillar C15 engine, the Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) oil line may wear against the P-clip retaining the oil line. An oil leak could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Caterpillar dealers will replace the VVA oil line with an updated version. |
| 2005127 | 2005-04-29. Suspension. On certain vehicles, the rear suspension transverse beam castings were not made to specifications. If a casting were to break when the vehicle is in motion, parts could become projectiles with potential to cause property damage, personal injury or death. Also, the transverse beam may drop down low enough to contact the road surface causing sparks that could ignite a fire. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the transverse beams. |
| 2004299 | 2004-08-23. Other. On certain vehicles, the battery box brackets, used to support the battery box and step, may develop a crack in the inboard radius. A crack in the bracket may lead to premature failure of the bracket causing the step to fail without warning, when an individual steps on it, causing a fall. Correction: Dealers will replace the battery box brackets. |
| 2004247 | 2004-07-15. Label. Certain vehicles do not comply with the requirements of CMVSS 120. The vehicle tire pressure was omitted from the certification label. Correction: Dealers will install correct labels. |
A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
