What this recall means for you
Certain Kenworth T180, T280, T380, and T480 trucks and Peterbilt 535, 536, 537, and 548 trucks may have a cab mirror glass lock ring that is not fully seated. This can allow the mirror glass to come loose from the mirror assembly.
If the mirror glass detaches, the driver's rearward visibility can be reduced, which increases the risk of a crash. Owners should check whether their truck is included in this recall and contact an authorized dealer if it is.
