18V697000

Date: 2018-10-10. Systems: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.

Defect: Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation (FCCC) MT45G, and MT55G vehicles. The engine ground stud may not have been properly tightened, causing the vehicle to seek other electrical paths to ground.

Consequence: If other wires or components unintentionally serve as an engine ground, they may overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.

Remedy: DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the grounding of the engine ground stud, repairing it as needed, free of charge. DTNA issued owners interim notifications on December 3, 2018. The recall began October 14, 2019. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL795.

Notes on this record

  • Complaints from the API and bulk file are merged and deduplicated by ODI number; the API alone misses records.
  • System and subsystem counts are numbers of distinct complaints, recalls or communications that name them. One record can name several systems, so shares across systems can add to more than 100 percent; a single share never exceeds 100 percent.
  • Recalls are counted once per campaign, investigations once per action and manufacturer communications once per NHTSA id, even when NHTSA lists several model names for the same record.
  • A sales denominator is a calendar-year proxy, not the population of vehicles still in use. Rates are copied from verified pipeline output.
  • NHTSA's complaints API and bulk file list no complaint for this make, model and model year in this data build.
