Kenworth T880 in the other registers

This site holds seven national and European registers. Kenworth T880 is named on 21 American notices. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.

The American register

Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

Issue:
On certain trucks, poor signal strength could cause the electronic control unit (ECU) to stop working or not to work properly. As a result, some safety systems may not work, including the antilock braking system, automatic traction control, electronic stability control, active cruise control and the collision mitigation system.

Safety Risks:
Vehicle safety systems that don't work correctly could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
PACCAR will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to reprogram the ECU software.

The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2024744.

The Canadian register on this site

Kenworth elsewhere in this register

Kenworth is named on 263 notices in the copy of Transport Canada’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same system: Brakes

791 notices in this register name Brakes. A defect that keeps returning under one heading is worth reading as a group rather than one notice at a time.

Reading this against the source

This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.

What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.

This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Kenworth T800b, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.

This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Kenworth: 263 in the register, and 672 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2024.
