- Published by: Transport Canada \(Canada\)
- Campaign number: 2020488
- Manufacturer's number: FL\-865
- Reported: 2020\-10\-16
- Component: Powertrain
- Notification type: Safety Mfr
- Units potentially affected: 966

## What is wrong

Issue:

On certain trucks equipped with an Eaton automated manual transmission and electronic clutch actuator \(ECA\), a component within the clutch assembly could fail. If this happens, the broken clutch components could prevent the transmission from disengaging or shifting to neutral. This could result in unintended vehicle movement, even if the parking brake is applied.

Note: This recall replaces FL\-803 \(Transport Canada recall 2018\-714\). Trucks that were repaired under that recall also require this repair.

Safety Risk:

Sudden and unexpected movement of the vehicle could create a risk of injury or a crash.

Corrective Actions:

Daimler Trucks North America \(DTNA\) will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a DTNA authorized service facility to replace the clutch and update the transmission software.
