Kenworth / Peterbilt recall: Power train

What is wrong

PACCAR Incorportated (PACCAR) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Peterbilt 536, 537, 548, 2023-2024 Kenworth T280, T480, and 2024 Kenworth T380 vehicles. The adhesive thread-lock may not have been applied to the four flange mounted yoke bolt threads, allowing the driveline fasteners to loosen.

What could happen

Loose fasteners may allow the driveline to separate from the truck, increasing the risk of a crash.
