Recalls issued for certain International, Peterbilt trucks

Trucking news and briefs for Monday, May 24, 2021:

Recalls issued for certain International, Peterbilt trucks
An issue that could cause a fuel leak has prompted Navistar to recall approximately 1,780 International trucks, according to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration documents.

The recall affects model year 2018-2019 International DuraStar and WorkStar models, 2019-2021 International HV and MV models, as well as 2019-2021 IC Bus RE models.

Navistar says the sealing washer in the affected trucks may not seat correctly in the pilot bore holes, allowing the high-pressure fuel rail assembly to leak.

Dealers will inspect the rail threads and replace the rail as necessary, for free. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. NHTSA’s recall number is 21V-366.

Paccar is also recalling just 13 model year Peterbilt 348 and 579 model trucks in which the spring brake chamber may have been assembled with incorrect springs that were out of specification, which may cause the pressure plate to shift, potentially causing a loss of air pressure.

Dealers will replace the brake chambers for free. Owners may contact Paccar customer service at 1-940-591-4220 with recall number 21PBE. NHTSA’s recall number is 21V-328.

New diameter dampers for Eaton's clutch line | To help meet global emissions and fuel economy regulations, many manufacturers are producing downsized and downspeed engines. Those newer engines produce peak torque at lower RPMs, which can create increased levels of engine torsional vibration. Eaton’s new 285-millimeter diameter damper clutches are designed to reduce those vibrations and feature the first application of Eaton’s 'Soft Stop' technology in a heavy-duty application, the company said. Soft stops increase clutch durability by reducing stress on the damper springs during potential over-torque events. Traditionally, heavy-duty diesel engines use a 232-millimeter or 254-millimeter diameter damper, which primarily mitigate engine vibrations from traveling through the entire driveline. New push self-adjust Standard Duty and Extreme Duty models in varying sizes and designs provide smooth engagements, the company added. Standard Duty models previously available in a 232-millimeter damper also are now available in 254-millimeter damper with a 1,950 ft.-lb. torque rating and a 285-millimeter damper with a 2,050 ft.-lb. torque rating.
