SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SUPPLY:RESERVOIR/TANK
Insufficient air volume can reduce braking performance and increase the risk of a crash.
11 safety recall campaigns, 2 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
Insufficient air volume can reduce braking performance and increase the risk of a crash.
If the driver unknowingly operates the vehicle without the ABS functioning, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
If the hazard warning lamps are overridden by the DRL, oncoming vehicles may fail to be warned, increasing the risk of a crash.
If the weld fails causing a loss of power to the rear wheels, the vehicle operator may be unable to move the vehicle, or may experience deceleration if the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
If the alternator cable rubs through its insulation, an electrical short may occur, increasing the risk of a fire.
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.
Two 2014 KENWORTH T660s 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.
