Recall campaigns 6 of 10

24V1450002024-02-23

SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SUPPLY:RESERVOIR/TANK

Insufficient air volume can reduce braking performance and increase the risk of a crash.

20V1990002020-04-06

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)

If the driver unknowingly operates the vehicle without the ABS functioning, there would be an increased risk of a crash.

15V3090002015-05-26

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE

If engine oil comes into contact with a hot surface, there is an increased risk of a fire.

15V2710002015-05-08

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.

13V5730002013-11-18

SERVICE BRAKES

Brakes that take longer to apply may lengthen the distance needed to stop the truck, increasing the risk of a crash.

11V1570002011-03-07

SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SLACK ADJUSTERS

IF THE SLACK ADJUSTER HOUSING WERE TO FRACTURE, THE WHEEL BRAKE TO WHICH THE SLACK ADJUSTER HOUSING IS ATTACHED WOULD NO LONGER FUNCTION, WHICH COULD INCREASE VEHICLE STOPPING DISTANCES, AND IF MOUNTED ON THE STEER AXLE, COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO PULL TO ONE SIDE DURING BRAKING, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Two 2011 KENWORTH W900s 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.
