Aug 5, 2014

Kaffenbarger Truck Equipment Company (Kaffenbarger) is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 Ford F-550 Super Duty vehicles modified by Kaffenbarger and equipped with certain Muncie Power Products PTO Assemblies. In the affected vehicles, oil may leak from the PTO pressure switch onto a thermal blanket covering the exhaust.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: The leaking oil may soak into the thermal blanket covering the exhaust, which when combined with heat from exhaust, may result in an increased risk of fire.

Remedy: Kaffenbarger will notify owners, and dealers will replace the old PTO assembly with a new pressure switch kit, free of charge. The recall began during September 2014. Owners may contact Kaffenbarger customer service at 1-877-465-5832.
