The short answer

NHTSA received PACCAR INCORPORATED’s report on Sep 20, 2005. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 20, 2026.

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

IF THIS BOLT WERE TO FAIL, THE TRUCK COULD ROLL AWAY WHILE PARKED WITHOUT WARNING, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.

ON CERTAIN TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH HYDRAULIC BRAKES, THERE MAY BE A DEFECT IN THE ANCHOR BOLT OF SOME BOSCH MODEL #305 PARKING BRAKE ASSEMBLIES.

A DIFFERENT COATING WAS APPLIED TO THE BOLT WHICH DID NOT MEET PACCAR SPECIFICATIONS.

THIS COULD REDUCE THE FATIGUE LIFE OF THE BOLT AND LEAD TO PREMATURE FAILURE.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
