Daimler Trucks North America, LLC "DTNA" is recalling certain 2022 Freightliner Cascadia vehicles. The Anti-lock Brake System "ABS" fault codes will not be stored when the vehicle is keyed off for more than 5 seconds, impairing its diagnostic features and warning light. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
An ABS system that does not store fault codes may fail to warn the driver of an issue, or prevent proper repair. Either of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.
The remedy is currently under development. Interim notification letters, notifying owners of the safety risk, were mailed on August 18, 2022. A second notice will be sent once remedy parts become available, anticipated June 2024. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL943.
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.
