## What is wrong

Issue:

On certain vehicles, there could be a problem with the ventilation control system \(HVAC\). As a result, certain controls may not work, including the windshield defrost function.

Note: This recall replaces Transport Canada recall 2021\-444.

Safety Risk:

A windshield that cannot be defrosted/defogged can reduce visibility and could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:

PACCAR will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the date code of the HVAC control head and replace it, if necessary.
