## What is wrong

Palfleet Truck Equipment Company, LLC \(Palfleet\) is recalling certain model year 2009\-2013 Ford F\-350, F\-450, and F\-550 super duty vehicles modified by Palfleet and equipped with certain Muncie Power Products PTO Assemblies.  In the affected vehicles, oil may leak from the PTO pressure switch onto a thermal blanket covering the exhaust.


## What can happen

The leaking oil may soak into the thermal blanket covering the exhaust, which when combined with heat from exhaust, may result in an increased risk of fire.


## The remedy

Palfleet will notify owners, and dealers will install a new pressure switch kit that moves the switch away from the exhaust system, free of charge.  The recall began on July 29, 2014.  Owners may contact Palfleet customer service at 1\- 502\-376\-2458.
