Recall campaigns 6 of 6
15V271000
VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER:MOTOR
As water leaks in, the wiper may cease to function on the 'intermittent' setting, reducing the driver's visibility and increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, the water may cause corrosion which, over time, may result in an electrical short, increasing the risk of a fire.
14V013000
SEAT BELTS
If the latch plate remains partially engaged after the button is pressed, egress from the vehicle could be hindered which would increase the risk of injury in the event of an emergency.
13V612000
EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TAIL LIGHTS
If the stop/tail/turn light is not illuminated, the driver's intentions would not be communicated, which increases the risk of a crash.
13V222000
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:SWITCH
Unintended engine startup could cause injury to a person working in the engine compartment. Vehicles with standard transmissions may experience unexpected movement, which may result in personal injury or a crash.
13V082000
SEAT BELTS
In the event of a crash, the failure in the seat belt anchor may increase the risk of injury.

This page is about a model, not a car
Two 2014 KENWORTH T270s can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
