Talked to one of my former students at May today. He has been broken down for 6 days in PA. Mechanic said his truck won't be done until the 3rd of December, they're taking off for Thanksgiving Holidays ya know.
He drives a Peterbilt 587 2012. Guess what the problem is? DEF regen issues. Said the yellow light kept coming on for several mos. They would do a force regen and then it would come back on after a week or two. Only this time, it shut him down to 5 miles an hour where he waited 11 hrs for a tow truck to come and tow him! He gets $50 a day for sitting and told me he's spending $25 a day eating out.Last edited: Nov 20, 2012
