Model-generated complaint tags: This model year has not been tagged.
Defect: Daimler Trucks North America is recalling certain model year 2007 Sterling 360 trucks manufactured from January 25, 2006, through January 22, 2007; and equipped with an EPA04 4M50 engine. The fuel lines may crack due to an improper manufacturing process. Additionally, the fuel pipe flare nuts may have been insufficiently tightened.
Consequence: Cracked fuel pipes or loose fuel pipe flare nuts may leak fuel. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source may result in a vehicle fire.
Remedy: Daimler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the fuel lines and tighten or replace them as needed, free of charge. The safety recall began on February 5, 2013. Owners may contact Daimler Trucks at 1-800-547-0712.

Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE ALL OF THE AIR INTAKE DUCT RUBBER CUSHIONS WITH COMPONENTS MANUFACTURED TO PROPER SPECIFICATIONS. THIS REMEDY WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON OR ABOUT MARCH 15, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT DAIMLER TRUCKS AT 1-800-547-0712.

Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE VACUUM HOSE FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON APRIL 20, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FREIGHTLINER AT 1-800-547-0712.

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.
