Daimler Trucks North America routing and securement of certain electrical power cables at the battery relay and ground cable may cause the components to be damaged.
The short version
Daimler Trucks North America LLC reported a problem with the 12v/24v/48v battery cables. Here is what owners need to know.
The routing and securement of certain electrical power cables at the battery relay and ground cable may cause the components to be damaged.
A damaged power cable wire coming into contact with the ground cable at the battery relay may increase the risk of a fire from overloading the ground connection. Additionally, a damaged ground connection may also result in an unexpected engine stall without warning and inability to restart, increasing the risk of a crash.
DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will reroute the left ground cable and install a new connection joint, and the battery cables will be reoriented and a new heat sleeve installed, free of charge.
