## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, certain tow hooks that are used for recovery purposes may have been incorrectly manufactured and may not meet material strength specifications. If the tow hook were to fail during towing or a recovery operation, a sudden release of the vehicle without warning could occur, increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Daimler Trucks North America authorized service facilities will inspect tow hooks for a certain manufacture date code, and replace if needed.
