ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
If the driver unknowingly operates the vehicle without the ABS functioning, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
If the driver unknowingly operates the vehicle without the ABS functioning, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
Higher vehicle speeds and other factors such as tire load and road temperatures may result in premature tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
If the alternator cable rubs through its insulation, an electrical short may occur, increasing the risk of a fire.
If engine oil comes into contact with a hot surface, there is an increased risk of a fire.
If the tires are underinflated due to the incorrect inflation pressure listed on the label, the truck may not be able to carry the maximum gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) load listed without experiencing tire failure which would increase the risk of a crash.
Undertorqued tie rod end clamp bolts are susceptible to corrosion, which may cause loose bolts to separate resulting in a loss of vehicle control and an increased risk of a crash.
Two 2014 PETERBILT 365s can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
