Freightliner brake lights may remain illuminated after the brake pedal has been released.
The short version
Daimler Trucks North America LLC reported a problem with the exterior lighting brake lights. Here is what owners need to know.
The brake lights may remain illuminated after the brake pedal has been released.
If the brake lights remain illuminated, drivers may be unaware when the truck is actually slowing or stopping, increasing the risk of a crash.
DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will replace the 3-pin brake pressure switch with a 2-pin brake pressure switch along with a jumper harness, free of charge.
