Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Pierce Manufacturing is recalling certain model year 2010-2012 vehicles manufactured between August 28, 2010, and March 27, 2012, that are equipped with Detroit Diesel DD13 EPA 2007 and EPA 2010 diesel engines. The high pressure fuel line support system on these engines can be damaged during assembly or service work, which may cause the line supports to loosen and potentially lead to fuel line cracking and fuel leaks.
A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source may result in a fire. Pierce will notify owners, and the high pressure fuel line support system will be replaced by Daimler Truck North America (DTNA) authorized service facilities at no charge. The safety recall began on July 18, 2012. Affected consumers should contact DTNA at 1-800-547-0712 or Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. at 1-920-832-3000.
