What's wrong

Consequence
A punctured fuel tank can leak fuel, increasing the risk of a fire.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect and trim the U-bolts, and replace the fuel tank as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 3, 2023. Owners may contact Peterbilt's customer service at 1-940-591-4220. PACCAR's number for this recall is 23PBH.
