The problem
Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2020 Freightliner Cascadia vehicles. Due to inadequate clearance between the brake chambers and the frame rail, the brake chambers can contact the frame rail and cause brake chamber to detach or be damaged.
The risk
A detached brake chamber can cause reduced brake effectiveness, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
DTNA reports that all affected vehicles have been remedied, therefore owner notifications will not be sent. The recall began on November 7, 2019. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL-837.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
