What can happen

Safety consequence

If the hex nuts are not tightened to specification, the driveshaft may disconnect from the drive axle, resulting in a loss of propulsion and increasing the risk of a crash.

What fixes it

Official remedy

Peterbilt will notify the owners, and dealers will inspect the torque and, if necessary, tighten the bolts, free of charge. The recall began on March 11, 2016. Owners may contact Peterbilt customer service at 1-940-591-4000. PACCAR's number for this recall campaign is 216-A.
