Peterbilt warranty extension 7-700

Peterbilt filed this with NHTSA as a warranty extension dated Oct 22, 2024, received Nov 5, 2024, about the power train. It names 40 model years (2017–2021). A warranty extension is not a safety recall — there is no NHTSA campaign number and no federal requirement — but it is usually work the manufacturer pays for on the vehicles it names; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

None of these model years has a page on this site (it covers EPA-certified cars, trucks and SUVs from 2016), so the bulletin is listed here on its own.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Peterbilt 7-700 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 7-700 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 7-700 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 40 model years: 2017 Peterbilt 320, 2018 Peterbilt 320, 2019 Peterbilt 320, 2020 Peterbilt 320, 2021 Peterbilt 320, 2017 Peterbilt 365 and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
