The problem

Daimler Trucks North America, LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2024 Freightliner M2 Business Class vehicles. The vehicle may be incorrectly equipped with a transmission gear shifter that includes a 'PARK' position despite the transmission not having a park pawl.

The risk

When shifted into PARK, the transmission will actually be in NEUTRAL, increasing the risk of a vehicle rollaway and crash.

The fix

Dealers will inspect and replace the transmission gear shifter, as necessary free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 4, 2024. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL991.

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.nhtsa.gov.
