Service bulletin 14TL2
A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

A recall listed here may apply to some of the same vehicles. Only the manufacturer can say whether it applies to one vehicle.
| Exhaust System | 2026-09-04. Warranty extension. Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Freightliner Sprinter vehicles, has determined that on certain MY17-18 Freightliner Sprinter vehicles, the diesel particulate filter may crack due to an insufficient weld. MBAG also determined that specific environmental influences in the form of corrosion could have a negative effect on the long-term durability of the diesel particulate filter. This can lead to stresses within the exhaust system which could cause the diesel particulate filter to crack. In addition, in individual cases, it is possible that during repairs to the exhaust system that were unrelated to a defect of the diesel particulate filter, the exhaust system was not replaced in accordance with the MBAG specifications. Specifically, the issue might have arisen where it was necessary for the workshop to replace the exhaust system (including the diesel particulate filter) but that the replacement system was not fitted according to MBAG specifications. This could lead to stresses within the exhaust system which may also cause the diesel particulate filter to crack. In both cases, a fault code is stored in the engine control unit software and the engine diagnostics warning lamp (MIL) is activated. The driver would become aware of the issue due to noise from the exhaust system. |

| LI4910-N-060969 | 2026-05-02. Service bulletin. Complaint Rattling noise from underneath the vehicle. Cause One or more of the following conditions may be present: 1. The exhaust bracket from the DPF to the transmission is cracked or broken. • See Pic. 1 for an example of a broken bracket. 2. Transmission bell housing cracked or broken at the exhaust mounting area. • See Pic. 2 for an example of bell housing damage. 3. Exhaust bracket from DPF to engine (cylinder crankcase) cracked or broken. • See EPC OM651 #217 for bracket location. 4. Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) pipe cracked at a weld joint. • Cracking may be present at bracket welds or along the DPF housing seams. • This can cause rattling noises and secondary exhaust bracket stress. • Perform a visual inspection of the DPF pipe and weld joints. Remedy Inspect all related components and repair or replace as required. Inspection and Repair 1. Inspect the exhaust bracket from the DPF to the transmission. • Check the bracket for cracks or complete separation. • See Pic. 1 for a failed example. • See EPC OM651 #550 and Pic. 3 for bracket location. • If damaged, replace the bracket. • See Pic. 4, Pic. 5, and Pic. 6 for the updated bracket design and identification. 2. Inspect the transmission bell housing. • Inspect the bell housing at the exhaust mounting point for cracks or structural damage. • See Pic. 2 for an example of bell housing damage. • Replace the transmission if damage is confirmed. 3. Inspect the exhaust bracket from the DPF to the engine (cylinder crankcase). • Inspect the bracket for cracks or broken mounting points. • See EPC OM651 #217 for bracket location. • Replace the bracket if damaged. 4. Inspect the DPF pipe. • Inspect the DPF for cracks at weld joints, especially near mounting points. • If cracking is found, replace per current aftertreatment guidelines. Correct positioning and tightening of the exhaust system are critical to prevent repeat failures. Positioning the Exhaust System 1. Position and align the exhaust system before tightening. • Support and fit the exhaust system in its installed position. • Push the exhaust system forward. • Install the DPF‑to‑transmission bracket and lightly tighten the mounting bolt. • Install the engine mount and V‑mount bolts by hand, approximately two turns. • See “Positioning of the exhaust system” image. Tightening Sequence 1. Tighten the exhaust system in the correct sequence. • Tighten engine mounting bolts to 25 Nm. • Tighten V‑mount bolts to 25 Nm. • Tighten exhaust bracket bolts to 15 Nm. • See “Tightening sequence of the exhaust system” image. 2. Verify mounting bolt locations. • Confirm correct mounting screw positions at the transmission bracket. • See Pic. 7 and Pic. 8 for mounting screw locations. |

Vehicles with SCR Generation 4: SCR/AdBlue® warning message cannot be reset with fault code P13DF00 or P300685 Complaint Vehicles with SCR Generation 4: SCR/AdBlue® warning message cannot be reset. Information: All fault codes in the AdBlue® (SCR) control unit have been processed and corrected; however, fault codes P13DF00 and P300685 remain active and stored in the AdBlue® (SCR) control unit.

Complaint C: One or more electrical related fault codes for EGR Valve stored in CDI control unit, with possible Check Engine Light. Review list of electrical fault codes PDF document attached. Cause of Complaint A: Increased friction between the EGR Valve blade and seat due to soot deposits causing a delay of the EGR Valve being able to reach the target value of the EGR Valve position controller. NOTE: This causes the EGR Valve blade and potentially the boost pressure controller to oscillate. Cause of Complaint B: Soot deposits between the EGR Valve blade and seat leading to the EGR Valve no longer being able to meet the desired target of the EGR Valve position controller. Cause of Complaint C: Internal EGR Valve or other electrical faults related to the EGR Valve function. |
