Daimler Trucks North America recalls 2018-2020 Freightliner Cascadia trucks with potential ABS/ESC malfunction due to undetected solenoid valve issues. Owners must reprogram the ABS/ESC module for free.
Without the alert, an operator may not be aware of an active ABS/ESC malfunction and unknowingly operate the vehicle with reduced ABS/ESC function, increasing the risk of a crash.
Daimler Trucks North America is recalling certain 2018-2020 Freightliner Cascadia trucks. The vehicles may not detect an ABS/ESC malfunction, increasing crash risk if the driver is unaware of the problem.
The ABS Electronic Control Unit may not detect a faulty solenoid valve during low voltage start conditions. This causes the ABS/ESC malfunction indicator to stay off, so drivers may unknowingly operate the vehicle with reduced safety systems.
Owners of 2018-2020 Freightliner Cascadia trucks are affected. Drivers of these vehicles face the highest risk due to potential undetected ABS/ESC failures.
Check if your Freightliner Cascadia was manufactured between 2018 and 2020. The recall covers vehicles that do not illuminate the ABS/ESC malfunction indicator when the system is faulty.
Call 1-800-547-0712 to confirm your vehicle is affected and schedule a free reprogramming of the ABS/ESC module.
