Recall campaigns
Defect, as filed: Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2016-2019 Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation (FCCC) XBR, XBS, XCR, XCM, XCL, and XCS recreation vehicle chassis. The rear mounted Power Distribution Module (PDM) may have been damaged during manufacturing, possibly resulting in the rear marker lights, brake lights, or turn signals not functioning.
Consequence: Nonfunctioning lights can increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy: The remedy for this recall is still under development. DTNA issued owners an interim notification on October 24, 2018. The recall began May 29, 2019. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL788.
Filed by Daimler Trucks North America LLC (manufacturer campaign FL788); components: exterior lighting:turn signal; exterior lighting:brake lights; electrical system.
Defect, as filed: Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain model year 2013-2016 FCC XCS, XCM, XCR, XCL, XCP, XBS, XBR, and XBP trucks manufactured from January 7, 2013, through June 1, 2015. On certain motorhome chassis built with a heavier, adjustable, offset, foot pedal, the brake activation signal to certain towed devices may not deactivate when the motorhome service brakes are released.
Consequence: If the brake activation signal to a towed device remains active when the motorhome chassis service brakes are released, the brakes on a towed device may remain engaged depending on brake configuration of the trailer. As a result, the brakes would drag and possibly overheat potentially resulting in a fire. Additionally, following drivers may be confused by the motorhome's actions, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will modify the affected brake assemblies, free of charge. The recall began on June 6, 2016. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's recall number for this campaign is FL-704.
Filed by Daimler Trucks North America LLC (manufacturer campaign FL-704).
