- Campaign:
- 08E002000 on 01/01/2008
- Component:
- Latches/locks/linkages:doors:latch
- Affected:
- 9,297
- Defect:
- Certain trimark single rotor door latches with product date codes r40z, r41z, r42z, r43z, r44z, and r45z, installed for use as original equipment on peterbilt and kenworth heavy trucks, fail to comply with the transverse pull static load requirement of federal motor vehicle safety standard no 206, "door locks and door retention components." a malfunction in the sintering furnace did not exhaust lubricant which contaminated some parts passing through the furnace.
- Consequence:
- In the event of a vehicle crash, force could cause the rotor to crack and the door would not have primary or secondary closing security which could possibly lead to injury of the vehicle occupant.
- Correction:
- Trimark is working with paccar to notify owners and replace the door latches free of charge (please see 08v065).
