Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is PACCAR CE037 a recall?
No. A warranty extension is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
Is the CE037 repair free?
A warranty extension is usually paid by the manufacturer on the vehicles it names, within the terms and time limit the document sets; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.
Which vehicles does CE037 cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 8 model years across 2 brands (Kenworth and Peterbilt): 2020 Kenworth T680, 2020 Kenworth T800, 2020 Kenworth T880, 2020 Kenworth W900, 2020 Kenworth W990, 2020 Peterbilt 389 and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
