What happened

PACCAR is recalling certain 2017 Kenworth and Peterbilt trucks manufactured between March 2016 and May 2016 that are equipped with Cummins ISX12 or ISX15 engines. These vehicles have a defective engine control module that may short circuit, causing the engine to stall without warning and preventing the vehicle from restarting, which increases the risk of a crash.

Cummins will notify owners and dealers will replace the defective engine control modules at no charge. The recall began on July 8, 2016. Affected owners may contact Cummins customer service at 1-800-343-7357, Kenworth customer service at 1-425-828-5000, or Peterbilt customer service at 1-940-591-4000.
