NHTSA Campaign 17V810000
EQUIPMENT
Issued by Daimler Trucks North America LLC · Reported Dec 15, 2017 · 24,860 vehicles affected
What's wrong
Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2002-2017 Freightliner Cascadia, Century Class, Columbia and Coronado trucks and Western Star 4700, 4900, 5700, 5900 and 6900 trucks. These vehicles are equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers that may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable.

Consequence
In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.
