IMO get the hotel room. Have them go over truck. I noticed there is nationwide road repair, towing (but not recovery) $400 a yr for semi. If they fix it for parts cost. Pay for another night in hotel. (I comment as I listen). If you break down 1x and it covers... You need to tell a shop that there is a Kenworth dealer nearby??? Keep old belts, hoses. (Unless totally shot). Quick roadside repair parts. Avoid buying stuff at 3x price at truck stop. That sat for 5 yrs in front of heat vent...

@@XX-166 You are correct but in order for the owner to point out the issues such owner needs to know how to identify issues but I don’t get the feeling this guy knows much. For god sake, in his previous video when he was reviewing the truck he spend 90% of the time inside the cabin showing the bed, the fridge, the little window in the back, a table, etc.... about the engine he only said “it was pressure washed and they added more grease after washing it” 🤦🏻‍♂️, he brought his brother who is a driver and NOT a mechanic. If you are going to invest 50K+ into a truck and you don’t know jackshit about engines you need to bring a mechanic with you or at least have a shop (NOT the one owned by the dealership) on stand by for you to drop the truck and have them do a full inspection. From his video he said himself he thought he was going to buy the truck and be ready to start hauling loads the next day. I think he likes to cut corners, he likes to save every single penny and that came to bite him in the ass. He should’ve got the truck and go to a shop and PAY a inspection fee to have the truck checked up and down by a professional and if or when they found something it would be written on a official report from an actual mechanic and with that he can go back to the place he bought the truck and show them the report with everything that was found wrong and force them to fix it but he probably didn’t want to spend the couple hundred bucks to have a shop inspect the truck. Now because he was cheap and wanted to jump steps he ended up with a truck parked for a week and lost income. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@devorickjohnson7714]

I’m sure the mechanic knew that noise was coming from the belt when they gave you the keys back 💡 Is it just me, or that seemed kind of shady to everyone else? If there was no noise coming from the belt before, then there shouldn’t have been any noise coming from it after the water pump was replaced 🧐 Once the pump was replaced, it should have been good. What was the name of that shop again sir, so other drivers will be aware.

[@wjamesm1001]

They probably knew the belt got antifreeze on it and rolled the dice on not replacing it . I was always taught when a belt gets antifreeze on it , it gets replaced for this very reason

[@thor8640]

Kenworth actually buys directly from Cummins and distributes parts through their own PACCAR warehouses to their dealer. Some dealers do not have an account at the local Cummins distributor, warranty policies may throw a wrench into your dealer buying a water pump from another OE dealer as well as prices may be locked.

[@deezelfairy]

You're exactly right. It's naive to think the dealers are 'so dumb' that don't check other parts suppliers. I'm a forklift mechanic and our factory warranty parts HAVE to come from the manufacture, END OF, we cant just get the part from another supplier and send the bill to the OEM, it doesn't work like that! 😂 If we had to pay for the parts, (e.g machine maybe out of manufacturers warranty but sold 2nd hand with our own warranty) than we still wouldn't be getting the part from another dealer, we'd get maybe a 40-50% discount from the OEM but from another dealer we'd be paying close to retail. Thats why they don't check other dealers for parts availability - unless that dealer has multiple depots and will check the others buts that's as far as it goes.

[@ontheflylens]

Sure you picked up a clean truck with a few miles on it but there will always be those things like a water pump, compressor, etc that will need replacing but once it's done it's done for a good while, that's the good side I try to lean on, learning how to do those repairs will save you alot of downtime and labor $$$ I'm sure the DPF system will want attention in the near future but let's gets some miles on the road and recharge the bank account :-) Be safe out there Yousiff!

Where that hinge is, there should be a couple of bolts that are loose, they just may need to be tighten to fix the pop noise when door opens

[@jackblack6893]

You should not have paid the $490 , its the dealer that stretched the belt to to take off the water pump. After installing back on its starter slipping (thats why it was making noise) , the belt was not making noise when you took it in for the leaking water pump. Also they double charged you for the labor on the belt , they had to take it off to change the water pump. Call your dealer make some noise and get a full refund on the belt.

[@youtubeisawesome2487]

belt did not get stretched, the belt tensioners sieze up and when you move them to remove the belt they will not put the proper tension back onto the belt, its a known issue, belts are also a wear item just like brakes and clutch items

The clicking door holder is a common issue on Paccar products (Peterbilts & Kenworths), only thing you can really do is replace it (hopefully before it breaks then anchoring bolts). Also on a Cummins engine that repeated moving noise you hear when you shut it down it normal, it is the intake throttle valve running its own checks.

[@lockporttransport]

You remind me of me in 10/2011. I took delivery of a 2012 T660 that I ordered with a 600HP Cummins and after two major engine failures it was garbage at 350,000 miles. Neither of which Cummins took responsibility for in compliance with their Progressive Warranty. It basically states that they will only warranty the 1st part that fails in the string of failures. That means that the first breakdown, a shattered porcelain fuel plunger took out all the injectors and although I was billed $14,000 they gave me back $6,000. This was because the triple plunger system had a potential to cavitation, ergo they changed the entire fuel delivery system. How I ended up responsible for all the injectors after initially purchasing $14,000 in extended warranties on all components to a minimum of 500,000 miles was beyond me. 100,000 miles later it turned a main bearing that pulled a rod and scored the block. A $35,000 engine bill of which Cummins said was sized by a pitting camshaft whose metal deposits caused the main bearing to turn and they offered to pay only for the camshaft. This was at 350,000 miles. I'd had the truck for 27months and I didn't have anywhere near that amount on hand to repair and had to forfeit the truck to auction and was on the hook for the remainder. 10 years after purchase, I'm still paying for that POS Cummins Engine. Buyer beware, Yousuf! Buyer beware. You should get rid of that red devil before it comes after you. Get yourself a Detroit in, say, a Western Star 5700XE. That's a similar style. You'd love it.

The dealer should have been bending over backwards to take care of you but that's not what they did, even the pissed-off-cowboy-key-getter was a dick! I'm in the road service business & I treat my customers how I like to be treated.

Had a 2014 T-680. It was not a spec`d truck. In fact, we bought 2 of them in 2015, they had been sitting a year already in a lot in Ohio. Had my share of problems, some major, mostly minor ones. Firmware glitches, needed updates that OBVIOUSLY were not applied during the PDI. The thing that really irked me the most wasn`t that it had problems, it was the dumb broad on the day shift in the service department. I`d call in with this problem, usually I could limp it home, and I wanted to bring it in for them to look at the problem. Beyond the lengthy booking date for an appointment, I always got the standard `Who`s going to pay for it?` line, every single time, that is what she would ask. I think it was the 2nd time I called in about something, my response to her stupid line was `Don`t these things come with a one-year warranty? Charge it to the sales department.`

if its eating coolant, your head gasket will not last long, man if possible Return this thing ASAP , and either buy new semi or keep the hotshot, best advise, gonna be big issues down the rd.

[@dickhartley7090]

We will see if he is this excited to see the truck after a year!

[@PoBoy_Trucker]

Damn. You’re so negative. That’s why you’re filled with disappointment in your life, you speak it into existence. Think positive

[@georgemathu7478]

Why are people so negative?probably a keyboard warrior with nothing going on for himself

[@zaidchalabi1599]

i guarantee you are not a truck driver newly bought trucks break down alot until you know your truck and its problemsy. it gets better . it doesnt get worse

[@Themostdef100]

Shut up

[@jazzsounds8159]

That is a worthless shop, period. Were the belt squealing when it was leaking? If not its a install labor problem from the shop. Hope you're successful young man. Almost 25 years of trucking, most are out to take a buck from you.

[@waymonhutto2274]

I hada 2014 T680. It spent three weeks in the KW shop with an emissions problem. I was not a happy trucker.

[@johnnydiaz925]

Lol get this, we bought a New 2020 KW T880, not even 3k miles in the EGR goes out. Good thing we had a 750k mile warranty. But seriously, these trucks need to be improved on. Same with the damn harnesses. 2019 KW T880 went through 4 ABS harnesses before 250k miles. Crazy lol

[@french2french527]

To much negative yall showing respect his journey and learned Everybody life ain the same keep pushing bro you the one with a title 💯 🙏

[@paulm3481]

Like your honesty.Good luck down the road.

[@DanielGarcia-zz9eg]

Problem is, its a KW and u at a Peterbilt. With so many trucks in line plus knowing that they paying out of pocket, they won't rush your truck ahead of everyone . Once u have a problem, u looking at 5 to 7 days solid. Electric problem 3 weeks . Its a long wait at the dealer

[@kenbrohere]

Bought a freight liner at Houston freight liner with similar issues. You are not alone, my friend.

[@jemhidiahssj4114]

KW service is why my company that was exclusively KW for 40+ years dropped them for peterbilt and freightliner.

[@martinmrazek868]

water pump must be part which is always on stock I am supersized that you have to wait so long. And please do not move so much when you are outside I got dizzy :-)

[@robertesposito9871]

Hope you have better luck with it, it’s a really good looking truck, can’t wait to see some videos you working with it

[@Bendigo1]

Every truck has its own issues. Finding them and fixing them is just part of the job.

[@CB-lh8gw]

that's surprising, most of the new trucks I've driven didn't have a water pump issue, instead it was the DPF system failing lol... and always about an hour into my drive...

[@AlvinLuckenbach619]

If Rush Truck Center's slogan "Hurry by and wait for parts"

[@flexedbmw]

You're not kidding.

[@littlebrw]

squeaking from belts after water pump replacement. seems like they contaminated them with coolant.

[@stevecurrier2462]

That Cummins is going to give you all kinds of grief over time you own it. If it has more than 600k on it, plan on an inframe in next 100k. Cummins has problem with cylinders not fitting properly from the factory. They know, but won't do a recall because it can't fixed. A machining problem in block. The cylinders have .001 to .002 too much clearance, so they end up beating the ends of cylinders to death. My brother just went through this with his KW T680.
