Issue

Issue: On certain trucks, the pivot joint for the molded hood mirrors may fail. If this happens, the upper half of a mirror could detach and fall from the truck, if it was not built with a wire harness or tether. Safety Risk: A mirror that falls from the truck could create a road hazard for others and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Paccar will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a dealership to inspect the hood mirrors, and replace them if there is no wire harness or tether.
