PACCAR Incorporated (PACCAR) is recalling certain 2020 Kenworth T370 long wheelbase vehicles with larger rear axle spacing. The vehicles may be missing a second R12 relay valve, causing increased brake activation timing.

Increased brake activation timing may lengthen vehicle stopping distance, increasing the risk of a crash.
