What's wrong
Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems, LLC (Bendix) is recalling certain Bendix EC80 Advanced Electronic Control Units (ECU) part numbers K168135, K163400, K168122, K168123, K168128, K168129, K179860, K203871, K220313, K163402, K163124, K168136, K210927, K210928, K210929, K219871, K219872, K219874, K220316, K168124, K194487, K194492, K211945, K211946, K212554, K212555, K250369, K250374, K271500, and K271501. Electrical noise and low signal to the power line carrier may cause the ECU to incorrectly process commands or stop working.
Consequence

Remedy
Bendix will reprogram the ECU software, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed December 1, 2024. Owners may contact Bendix Customer Service at 440-329-9000.
