What is wrong

Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2013-2015 Freightliner M2 trucks manufactured December 10, 2012, to October 28, 2014, and equipped with the auto-apply brake feature. In the affected vehicles, the parking brake may apply unintentionally.

What can happen

If the parking brake applies without warning while driving and without activating the brake lights, there is an increased risk of a crash.

The remedy

DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will remedy the vehicles, free of charge. DTNA issued an interim notification letter to owners on December 26, 2014. The recall began on February 18, 2015. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-745-8000. DTNA's number for this recall is FL-672.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
