What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

PACCAR Incorporated (PACCAR) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Kenworth T370, T270, 2022-2027 Kenworth T280, Peterbilt 548, 2023-2027 Kenworth T480, T380, Peterbilt 536, 537, and 2025 Peterbilt 567 vehicles. The remote fuel filter hoses may separate from the fitting, causing a fuel leak and an engine stall.

The risk

A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire. An engine stall increases the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Dealers will replace the fuel hoses, free of charge. Owner notification letters will be mailed beginning December 20, 2026. Owners may contact Peterbilt's customer service at 1-940-591-4220 or Kenworth's customer service at 1-425-828-5888. PACCAR's number for this recall is 26PACJ.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
