## What is wrong

PACCAR Inc. \(PACCAR\) is recalling certain model year 2013\-2015 Kenworth K300 and Peterbilt 210, 220, and 320 chassis manufactured March 14, 2012 to July 14, 2014.  The affected vehicles may have loose fitting electrical connectors on the power distribution module which may cause the engine to shut off.


## What can happen

An unexpected engine shut down increases the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

PACCAR will notify owners, and dealers will install nylon tie straps to hold the connectors in place until the permanent remedy, a connection position device, becomes available.  Both remedies will be provided free of charge.  The recall began January 29, 2015.  For more information, Peterbilt owners may call 1\-940\-591\-4220 and Kenworth owners may call 1\-425\-828\-5000.
