What is wrong

Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2018 Freightliner Cascadia trucks equipped with Detroit automatic transmissions. A shift lock bolt within the transmission can seize, preventing the transmission from being shifted out of gear range 7 through 12.

What can happen

If the transmission cannot be shifted out of gear range 7 through 12, the engine may stall, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the transmissions and replace the transmission shift bolt, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on February 28, 2018. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL-754.

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.
