The short version
Daimler Trucks North America LLC reported a problem with the tires. Here is what owners need to know.
The affected vehicles have front axles that have a 20,000 pound capacity, however, the installed Bridgestone R249 front tires have a lower maximum load capacity.
The operator may unintentionally overload the tires, possibly causing tire failure thereby increasing the risk of a crash.
DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front tires with tires of a higher load capacity, free of charge.
