Service bulletins for the 2019 Freightliner Cascadia

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.

771 on file from NHTSA, as of 2026-10-19.

New Cascadia day cab vehicles with roof fairings may experience minor water leaks through the upper door seals.

Though the backup light harness is long enough to connect to the backup light switch, it may be short enough that the wire seals in the connector can be stressed. Moisture entering through the seals can cause corrosion, resulting in a bad connection and/or failure of the switch. As a result, backup lights and, if equipped, the backup alarm, may not function when the vehicle is shifted into reverse.

SS10346862020-04-09. Service bulletin. ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING; POWER TRAIN. Service Solution for P4 New Cascadia with Manual Transmissions Does Not Use Bottom Of Clutch Switch For Starting. On the prior P3 Legacy Cascadia vehicles with manual transmission, the Bottom of Clutch (BOC) switch could be uses as an interlock for the engine crank circuit. If programmed in the SAM Cab, the engine crank circuit would require the clutch to be fully depressed in order for the engine to crank. P3 also offered a neutral switch as an interlock that could be used instead of the BOC and would require the transmission to be neutral in order for the engine to crank. P4 New Cascadia only offers the neutral switch as the interlock for engine crank.

Some new CTPs being installed in the field have failed to activate and do not communicate with Detroit Connect back end. The activation of the CTP requires that the VIN and CTP serial number pair is transmitted from DiagnosticLink to the Detroit Connect registration server. When using the old procedure, there may be some factors that may prevent that VIN and CTP Serial Number pairing data from uploading to the server.
