## What is wrong

Daimler Trucks North America, LLC \(DTNA\) is recalling certain model year 2016\-2017 Freightliner M2 Business Class and 114 SD trucks manufactured March 10, 2015, to July 11, 2016.  The brake caliper mounting bolts on the affected vehicles may be incorrectly torqued, allowing the bolts to loosen and detach.


## What can happen

If the brake caliper mounting bolts loosen or detach, braking ability may be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the brake caliper mounting bolts for the proper torque and tighten them as necessary, free of charge.  An interim notice was sent to owners on November 7, 2016.  The final remedy is now available.  A second notice was mailed to owners on January 26, 2017.  Owners may contact DTNA customer service at \-800\-547\-0712.  DTNA's number for this recall is FL\-722.


## 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.
