Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
PACCAR is recalling certain Kenworth T660, T700, T800, and W900 vehicles manufactured between December 22, 2008, and August 2, 2010, that are equipped with AG400L air disc brakes. The air disc brake caliper may have been installed on the wrong side of the drive axle, which can cause interference with the suspension bracket and rear suspension as the brake pads wear and the floating caliper moves inward.
As this interference increases, it could eventually reduce braking performance and increase the risk of a crash. Dealers will verify the correct orientation of the brake caliper and perform any necessary repairs free of charge. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Kenworth at 425-828-5440.
