## What is wrong

PACCAR Incorporated \(PACCAR\) is recalling certain 2021\-2022 Kenworth T680, T880, W990, T800, W900 and Peterbilt 579, 567, 389, 367 vehicles equipped with a Cummins X15 engine.  The capscrews that attach the flywheel to the crankshaft may have been improperly torqued, allowing the flywheel to detach.

## The remedy

PACCAR will notify owners, and dealers will properly torque the capscrews and the engine will also be inspected for damage and, if necessary, repaired, free of charge.  The recall began on March 29, 2021.  Owners may contact PACCAR customer service at 1\-425\-828\-5888 \(Kenworth\) or 1\-940\-591\-4220 \(Peterbilt\).  PACCAR's numbers for this recall are 21KWA and 21PBB.
