By component
| 17V810000 | 2017-12-15. EQUIPMENT. 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. For a full list of the affected fire extinguisher models visit: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17E062-5427.pdf Built 2001-07-11 to 2016-08-19. |

| 07V302000 | 2007-07-16. SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SUPPLY:CHECK VALVE. CERTAIN FREIGHTLINER SCHOOL BUS CHASSIS, HEAVY TRUCKS, AND THOMAS BUILT SCHOOL BUSES MANUFACTURED BETWEEN JULY 2002 AND JULY 3, 2007, EQUIPPED WITH BENDIX SR-7 SPRING BRAKE CONTROL VALVES. THE PARKER SCV BRASS 90 DEGREE SINGLE CHECK VALVES (SCV) WHICH ATTACH TO THE SUPPLY PORT OF A BENDIX SR-7 SPRING BRAKE MODULATING VALVE CAN BREAK APART. PIECES OF THE PARKER SCV CAN BECOME LODGED INSIDE THE SR-7 SPRING BRAKE MODULATING VALVE, POTENTIALLY CAUSING EITHER LEAKAGE OUT OF THE SR-7 VALVE OR PREVENTING AIR FROM PROPERLY EXHAUSTING FROM THE SR-7 VALVE. ALSO, DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT IN THE INTERNAL RUBBER CHECK VALVE INSIDE THE SR-7 SPRING BRAKE MODULATING VALVES, THE VALVES CAN BECOME DEFORMED AND NOT SEAT PROPERLY. Built 2002-07-01 to 2007-07-03. |
| 06V006000 | 2006-01-12. STEERING. ON CERTAIN TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH VEHICLE IMPROVEMENT STEERING WHEELS, THE STEERING WHEELS MAY BE MANUFACTURED WITH INCORRECT LENGTH HUCK FASTENERS THAT ARE TOO SHORT TO ALLOW PROPER COLLAR ENGAGEMENT ON THE PIN. THE STEERING WHEEL WILL FEEL LOOSE ON THE HUB FOR A PERIOD OF TIME, WITH THE SUBSEQUENT POSSIBILITY OF A COMPLETE SEPARATION. Built 2000-10-01 to 2005-01-01. |
| 03V323000 | 2003-08-29. STEERING. ON CERTAIN TRUCKS AND TRUCK-TRACTORS EQUIPPED WITH TRW PCF STEERING GEARS, A CRACK CAN OCCUR IN THE STEERING GEAR INPUT SHAFT. |
| 2007231 | 2007-07-11. Brakes. On certain vehicles, the internal rubber check valve inside the Bendix SR-7 spring brake modulating valve can become deformed over time. The effect of this defect is intermittent and presents a potential delay or failure in applying the parking brakes; potentially resulting in a vehicle roll away. Should this occur, the unattended roll away vehicle could strike a bystander or cause property damage. Correction: Dealers will install a check valve repair kit. |
|---|---|
| 2006009 | 2006-01-12. Steering. On certain vehicles, the steering wheel was manufactured with incorrect length Huck fasteners that are too short to allow proper retaining collar engagement. Steering wheel separation will result in a loss of steering control, possibly resulting in a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, repair or replace the steering wheel. |
| 2003348 | 2003-12-24. Brakes. On certain vehicles equipped with air brakes, the plastic push-to-connect air line fitting cartridge could be improperly welded into the nylon junction block housing. This could allow an air line to become disconnected. The separation of an air line at the junction manifold fitting may affect the normal function of some brake controls. Correction: Dealer will affect repairs. |
| 2003322 | 2003-12-09. Steering. On certain vehicles, a crack can occur in the steering gear input shaft. As a result, the driver could experience a loss of steering control which may result in a vehicle crash without prior warning. Correction: Dealer will inspect the steering gear and replace it if necessary. |
| 2003158 | 2003-06-19. Other. On certain vehicles, fatigue cracks can initiate in the weld joining the bracket pin to its mounting flange on the fifth wheel assembly. Weld failures could lead to the loss of the pin and the potential separation of the fifth wheel top plate from its mounting structure without warning. Correction: Dealers will replace the bracket pins. |
A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
