What was wrong
Defect
PACCAR is recalling certain model year 2014 Kenworth T270 and T370 trucks, manufactured from January 31, 2013, through February 4, 2013. The left hand seat belt floor pan reinforcement bracket was not positioned correctly during assembly. This could result in the failure of the seat belt anchor mounting.
Risk
In the event of a crash, the failure in the seat belt anchor may increase the risk of injury.
Manufacturer remedy
PACCAR will notify owners, and dealers will remove, reposition, and reinstall the reinforcement bracket free of charge. The recall began on April 15, 2013. Owners may contact Kenworth at 1-425-828-5000.
