# NHTSA recall 17V593000 A recall listed here may apply to a vehicle of this year, make and model. Only the manufacturer can say whether it applies to one vehicle: check the VIN with the official lookups. - Published by: NHTSA \(United States\) - Campaign number: 17V593000 - Manufacturer's number: P817\-C - Manufacturer: PACCAR Incorporated - Reported: 2017\-09\-22 - Owners notified: 2017\-11\-13 - Component: STEERING:LINKAGES:TIE ROD ASSEMBLY; STEERING - Units potentially affected: 17737 ## What is wrong PACCAR Incorporated \(PACCAR\) is recalling certain 2016 Peterbilt 220, 320, 325, 330, 337, 348, 365, 367, 382, 384, 386, 389, 389G, 567, 579 and 587 trucks and Kenworth K170, T170, T270, T370, T440, T470,T660, T680, T800, T880, and W900 trucks equipped with certain Spicer D or E series steer axles. The castellated nut on the steer axles may not be properly torqued, allowing the tie rod to loosen. ## What can happen If the tie rod loosens, it may disconnect from the steering knuckle, causing a complete loss of steering and increasing the risk of a crash. ## The remedy PACCAR will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the torque of the castellated nut and tie rod, tightening it as necessary. If the tie rod stud and knuckle on units cannot be sufficiently torqued, the dealer will replace the knuckle and tie rod end assembly, free of charge. The recall began on November 13, 2017. Owners may contact Peterbilt customer service at 1\-940\-591\-4000 or Kenworth customer service at 1\-425\-828\-5000. PACCAR's number for this recall is P817\-C. ## Notes Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov. ## Remedy progress the manufacturer reported - Report: Quarterly report 6, for 2019 quarter 1 - Filed with NHTSA: 2019\-04\-26 - Vehicles in the campaign: 17737 - Reported remedied: 11099 \(62%\) - Reported unreachable: 1181 - Reported removed: 0 These are the manufacturer's totals for the whole campaign at the end of 2019 quarter 1, as filed with NHTSA.
