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: 18V816000
- Manufacturer's number: 18KWF \& 18PBC

## What is wrong

PACCAR Incorporated \(PACCAR\) is recalling certain 2013\-2019 Kenworth T680 and T880 and Peterbilt 579 trucks, greater than 30 feet long and equipped with side extender mounted intermediate marker lamp/turn signals that do not include a reflex reflector.  Since both intermediate side marker lamps and reflex reflectors are required, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard \(FMVSS\) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."


## What can happen

Missing reflex reflectors can reduce the vehicle's visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

PACCAR will notify owners and dealers will install reflex reflective tape, free of charge.  The recall began January 15, 2019.  Owners may contact PACCAR customer service at 1\-918\-259\-3258.  PACCAR's number for this recall is 18KWF, and 18PBC.


## 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.
