The problem
Daimler Trucks North America, LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2017-2022 FCCC XC Chassis vehicles. The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) may report incorrect information, such as temperature and pressure values, on the instrument cluster.
The risk
Incorrect TPMS information may not alert the driver of an actual low pressure or high temperature tire condition, which can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will update the TPMS software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 22, 2022. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL935.
Contacts
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.nhtsa.gov.
