Recall 18V-697: Electrical System
Problem: Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation (FCCC) MT45G, and MT55G vehicles. The engine ground stud may not have been properly tightened, causing the vehicle to seek other electrical paths to ground.
Risk: If other wires or components unintentionally serve as an engine ground, they may overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.
