Together, the recalls affect 34,014 vehicles and involve fuel system components, trailer landing gear, and wheel bearing lubrication. Each manufacturer has identified a repair or inspection procedure that will be provided at no cost to affected owners.

PACCAR Recalls 26,729 Kenworth and Peterbilt Trucks

PACCAR Incorporated is recalling 26,729 trucks because remote fuel filter hoses may separate from their fittings. The separation could cause a fuel leak and potentially lead to an engine stall.

The recall covers certain vehicles across the following model years:

• 2022–2023: Kenworth T370 and T270
• 2022–2027: Kenworth T280 and Peterbilt 548
• 2023–2027: Kenworth T480 and T380, Peterbilt 536 and 537
• 2025: Peterbilt 567

Not every truck within these model years is necessarily included. Owners should confirm eligibility using the vehicle identification number (VIN).

PACCAR dealers will replace the affected fuel hoses free of charge. Owner notification letters are scheduled to begin mailing on December 20, 2026.

Owners can contact Peterbilt customer service at 1-940-591-4220 or Kenworth customer service at 1-425-828-5888. PACCAR identifies the recall as 26PACJ.

Great Dane Recalls 6,810 Trailers Over Landing Gear Components

Great Dane is recalling 6,810 model year 2027 Champion and Everest van trailers because of a potential problem with the landing gear support structure.

According to the recall, welds on the landing gear K-brace may fail, allowing the landing gear to collapse. The K-brace is part of the support assembly associated with the trailer’s landing gear.

Great Dane will inspect the affected components and replace the landing gear K-brace when necessary. The inspection and replacement will be completed at no charge to owners.

Notification letters are expected to be mailed on December 22, 2026. Owners seeking additional information can contact Great Dane customer service at 1-877-369-3493.

Wabash Recalls 475 Van Trailers Over Wheel Bearing Lubrication

Wabash has issued a recall affecting 475 model year 2027 van trailers because incorrect wheel bearing lubricant may have been used during production.

The lubricant issue could cause a wheel end to seize, potentially resulting in wheel lockup.

Dealers will inspect the affected trailers and replace the wheel bearing lubricant as necessary, free of charge.

Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed November 25, 2026. Wabash customer service is available at 1-765-771-5404 for additional recall information.

Checking Whether a Truck or Trailer Is Included

Although the recalls identify specific makes, models, and production years, inclusion is determined by the individual vehicle. A truck or trailer matching the listed model year is not automatically subject to the recall.

NHTSA provides a VIN-based recall lookup that allows owners to check for open safety recalls. The agency also provides information about recall campaigns and manufacturer remedies.

For company-owned equipment, fleet maintenance departments may coordinate inspections and repairs with authorized dealers. Owner-operators and independent trailer owners can contact the applicable manufacturer to confirm whether their equipment is affected and arrange the necessary service.

The three recalls have different notification schedules, with letters expected to begin arriving between late November and late December. Owners do not need to rely solely on receiving a mailed notice to check their equipment’s recall status.

All three manufacturers have announced no-cost remedies for the identified defects.

The affected manufacturers include Wabash, International Motors, and Great Dane Trailers.

Wabash Recalls Refrigerated Bodies Over Step Issue

Wabash is recalling 357 model-year 2021 through 2026 Econex refrigerated-body vehicles because the side-door stirrup steps may not be properly secured. If a step detaches during use, it could increase the risk of injury.

Wabash plans to repair the affected stirrup steps at no cost to owners. Notification letters are expected to be mailed in September. Owners with questions can contact Wabash customer service at 1-765-771-5404.

Wabash Also Recalls Four Dry Freight Trucks

A separate Wabash recall affects four model-year 2025 and 2026 dry-freight trucks equipped with liftgates. The company said the deck pins may fail, allowing the liftgate platform to fall unexpectedly.

Wabash, working with Hiab, will replace the deck pins and bushing kits free of charge. Owner notification letters are scheduled to be mailed beginning August 21.

International Motors Recall Affects More Than 15,000 Trucks

The largest recall involves 15,236 International Motors vehicles, including certain model year 2021, 2023 through 2027 MV trucks and 2026 through 2027 HV trucks.

According to NHTSA, the battery interconnect cable may contact the auxiliary stud and battery hold-down bracket, creating the potential for a short circuit. A short circuit can increase the risk of a vehicle fire.

Dealers will install protective plastic saddles on the positive interconnect cable and, where necessary, add wind laces and a J-bolt between the batteries at no cost to owners. Notification letters are expected to be mailed on September 14.

International said this action replaces and expands an earlier recall, NHTSA Recall 25V534. Vehicles that were previously repaired under that campaign will still require the updated remedy. Owners can contact International customer service at 1-800-448-7825 and reference recall number 26510.

Great Dane Recalls 11 Dry Van Trailers

Great Dane is recalling 11 model year 2027 Champion dry van trailers because they may have been manufactured without rear impact guard extension channels. Without those components, the trailers do not meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 224 covering rear impact protection.

Dealers will install the missing extension channels free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed beginning September 15. Owners can contact Great Dane customer service at 1-877-369-3493.

What Drivers Should Do

Drivers and fleet operators should determine whether their equipment is included in any of these recall campaigns and schedule repairs as soon as they become available. Recall repairs are performed at no cost, and addressing safety defects promptly can help reduce the risk of equipment failures on the road.
