The following safety recalls were issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA):
- Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) is recalling certain 2022 Freightliner Cascadia vehicles. The Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) fault codes will not be stored when the vehicle is keyed off for more than 5 seconds, impairing its diagnostic features and warning light. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 121, "Air Brake Systems." An ABS system that does not store fault codes may fail to warn the driver of an issue, or prevent proper repair. Either of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 17 units are affected by the recall.
- DTNA is recalling certain 2022 Freightliner Cascadia vehicles. The electronic parking brake may not engage when the vehicle is keyed off, which may result in a vehicle rollaway. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of FMVSS numbers 121, "Air Brake Systems," and 136, "Electronic Stability Control Systems on Heavy Vehicles." A vehicle rollaway increases the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 17 units are affected by the recall.
- DTNA is recalling certain 2021-2022 FCCC MT50e walk-in vans. The electronic axle parking pawl may be broken or damaged which, when in park without the emergency brake set, can result in vehicle rollaway. A vehicle rollaway increases the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 16 units are affected by the recall.
- Daimler Vans USA is recalling certain 2016-2018 Mercedes-Benz Metris vans. The value for the maximum combined load weight capacity of the tires is incorrect. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire and Loading Information." An overloaded vehicle may cause tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 24,403 units are affected by the recall.
- Forest River is recalling certain 2020-2022 Coachmen Catalina, and 2021-2022 Forest River Aurora travel trailers. The breakaway switch may be incorrectly wired to the battery disconnect, which can prevent the trailer brakes from activating as intended. Trailer brakes that fail to activate can increase the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 12,141 units are affected by the recall.
