## What is wrong

PACCAR Incorporated \(PACCAR\) is recalling certain 2022 Peterbilt 579 vehicles equipped with chassis fairings.  The bolts that hold the chassis fairing step assembly in the closed position may loosen and fracture the latch attachment, causing the fairing assembly to flex.


## What can happen

A partially unsecured cab step can unexpectedly move while entering or exiting the cab, increasing the risk of injury.


## The remedy

Dealers will add new fasteners and a bracket, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed on April 11, 2022.  Owners may contact Peterbilt customer service at 1\-940\-591\-4220.  PACCAR's number for this recall is 22PBA.


## 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.nhtsa.gov.
