Bendix recall: Electrical system

What is wrong

Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems, LLC (Bendix) is recalling certain Bendix EC80 Advanced Electronic Control Units (ECU) part numbers K168135, K163400, K168122, K168123, K168128, K168129, K179860, K203871, K220313, K163402, K163124, K168136, K210927, K210928, K210929, K219871, K219872, K219874, K220316, K168124, K194487, K194492, K211945, K211946, K212554, K212555, K250369, K250374, K271500, and K271501. Electrical noise and low signal to the power line carrier may cause the ECU to incorrectly process commands or stop working.

What could happen

Safety systems that depend on the ECU (Automatic Traction Control, ABS, Electronic Stability Control, Active Cruise Control, and Collison Mitigation System) may have diminished or lost functionality, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Bendix will reprogram the ECU software, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed December 1, 2024. Owners may contact Bendix Customer Service at 440-329-9000.
