Recall campaigns 6 of 17

19V3700002019-05-14

SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SUPPLY:RESERVOIR/TANK

An insufficient air reservoir volume may reduce brake effectiveness, increasing the risk of crash.

15V3430002015-06-03

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE

If engine oil comes into contact with a hot surface, there is an increased risk of a fire.

15V2200002015-04-14

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS:SWITCH

If the primary brake air system fails causing the truck to rely on the secondary brake air system, the brakes lights may not illuminate when the brakes are applied, increasing the risk of a crash.

15V1120002015-02-25

EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY

If the platform side plates crack, the lift platform can separate from the lift and come to rest against the vehicle's lift door. When the doors are opened, the platform may fall out, increasing the risk of injury to the lift operator.

14V6800002014-10-29

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:MANIFOLD/HEADER/MUFFLER/TAIL PIPE

Due to the area of its placement, the exhaust system forces heat around, and may overheat, the fuel system components, increasing the risk of a vehicle fire.

14V0800002014-02-21

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE

The sensor malfunction could induce elevated exhaust temperatures or flames from the exhaust pipe, increasing the risk of a vehicle fire or burn injury to a person near the exhaust pipe.

Two 2011 FREIGHTLINER M2s can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
