What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Plain-English summary

PACCAR Incorporated is recalling certain model year 2013 Peterbilt 367 trucks manufactured between April 18, 2012, and June 29, 2012. The affected vehicles may be equipped with a certification label that contains incorrect gross axle weight rating (GAWR) and gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) information. As a result, these vehicles fail to comply with the certification requirements of 49 CFR Part 567.

Incorrect GAWR and GVWR information can result in the vehicle being overloaded, which increases the risk of a crash. No specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Peterbilt will notify owners, and dealers will replace the certification labels free of charge. The recall began on September 21, 2016. Owners may contact Peterbilt customer service at 1-940-591-4000 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
