2023–2024 Peterbilt 579 recall: brakes
⚠️ What's wrong
PACCAR Incorporated (PACCAR) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Peterbilt 579 trucks. The Intellipark Tractor Park Valve Module (PVM) may intermittently become stuck in the un-parked position and fail to move into the park position when the park switch is activated.
💥 The risk
A PVM that fails to move into park can cause a vehicle rollaway, increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the PVM with a new corrected part, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 12, 2023. Owners may contact PACCAR's customer service at 1-940-591-4220. PACCAR's number for this recall is 23PBC.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
