## Canada (Transport Canada), as of 2026-10-19

- [2020148](/recalls/tc/2020148.md), 2020-04-07: Lights And Instruments. Issue: On certain trucks, the warning light for the tractor anti\-lock brake system \(ABS\) may not turn on if the system loses power. If this happens, the driver will not get warning that the ABS is not working properly. Note: This problem would also cause the traction control \(TC\) and electronic stability control \(ESC\) lights not to turn on.  Safety Risk: If a driver is not warned that the ABS is not working properly, there could be an increased risk of a crash.  Corrective Actions: PACCAR will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a dealer to update the software for the cab control module \(CECU\).
- [2015095](/recalls/tc/2015095.md), 2015-03-05: Label. Certain vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 120 \- Tire Selection and Rims.  The tire information label may indicate incorrect tire pressure, understated by 5 PSI, or  a tire/rim/inflation pressure combination for which the maximum GAWR is slightly below the GAWR of the vehicle. Underinflated tires may not be capable of supporting the maximum load as reflected by the GAWR and GVWR specified on the certification label, which could cause tire failure resulting in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Manufacturer will mail new tire and rims certification label.
- [2011263](/recalls/tc/2011263.md), 2011-07-21: Powertrain. On certain trucks equipped with a PACCAR MX engine and Eaton Ultrashift DM or Allison automatic transmission \(without auto\-neutral\), the Fast Idle Control \(also known as high idle\) may be activated by the operator while the transmission is in gear.  This could override the parking brake, allowing the vehicle to move unexpectedly.  Unintended vehicle movement could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will update the engine control software.
- [2011087](/recalls/tc/2011087.md), 2011-02-25: Engine. On certain vehicles equipped with a PACCAR MX engine, the oil module centrifugal spinner filter cap may become loose, possibly allowing the cap to come off and engine oil to partially discharge from the oil module onto nearby exhaust components.  The discharge of engine oil onto hot exhaust components could result in a fire causing property damage and/or personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will re\-torque the oil module filter cap and install a secondary retention device on the secondary centrifugal spinner filter cap.
