What's wrong?
The rear brake bulkhead assembly on these 2024-2026 Peterbilt 548, 589, 567, and 367 trucks is part of the air brake piping system. It routes brake air lines near the rear suspension and connects the service brake supply and anti-lock brake modulator, which helps control wheel lockup during hard braking.
On trucks built with the recalled rear brake piping installation, the piping does not have enough clearance from the tracking rod when the rear suspension moves through its full travel. The issue depends on the axle type, axle spacing, axle angle, and tracking rod setup. If the piping or modulator is contacted and damaged, the truck can lose service brake supply at an affected rear axle wheel end or lose anti-lock brake function.
Before brake supply is lost, the driver can see a fault code for loss of ABS. During inspection, a technician can also find brake modulator damage before loss of service brake supply or ABS.

What's the safety risk?
Brake failure increases the risk of a crash because the rear axle wheel end can lose service brake supply or ABS support. A fault code for ABS loss or brake modulator damage found during inspection is a warning to stop using the truck and call a Peterbilt dealer. Repair is free at any franchised Peterbilt dealer.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Peterbilt technician installs new brake hoses and corrects the rear brake piping assembly so the hoses and piping have proper clearance. Parts and labor are covered under the recall. PACCAR used its general reimbursement plan for this campaign, so documented out-of-pocket repairs tied to the brake hose or rear brake piping issue can be submitted through Peterbilt customer service.
