NHTSA Campaign 16V206000

SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:DISC:CALIPER

Issued by Daimler Trucks North America LLC · Reported Apr 12, 2016 · 702 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain model year 2010-2017 Freightliner M2 Business Class, 108SD, 114SD, and Columbia trucks manufactured from January 6, 2010, through February 29, 2016, equipped with certain Bendix rear disk brakes and spring suspensions. The rear disk brake caliper may have been installed incorrectly, thus allowing the caliper to contact the suspension.

Consequence

Caliper contact with the spring suspension may reduce the braking effectiveness, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will correct the orientation of the rear brake calipers, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on June 8, 2016. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's recall number for this campaign is FL-705.
