What happened

PACCAR is recalling certain 2015 Kenworth and Peterbilt diesel trucks manufactured between May and July 2014. The vehicles are equipped with Cummins ISB or ISL engines that may have defective Fleetguard UFF-XT fuel filters (part number FF63009). In these filters, the filter shell may separate from the fuel filter nut plate, causing the engine to stall unexpectedly, which increases the risk of a crash.

Cummins will replace the defective fuel filter with a non-defective one at no charge. Owners were notified between July 29 and December 31, 2014. Affected consumers should contact Kenworth customer service at 1-425-828-5000 (recall number 14KWJ), Peterbilt customer service at 1-940-591-4000 (recall number 814-H), or Cummins customer service at 1-812-377-3713 to arrange the free replacement.
