What are the defects?

The internal clutch component may be outside specifications and fail, which may prevent clutch disengagement.

What are the hazards?

If the internal clutch component fails and there is enough drive line torque in the transmission, the parking brake may be overcome while the vehicle is idling in neutral, causing the vehicle to move unintentionally and increasing the risk of an accident or injury.

What should consumers do?

Owners are requested to contact any authorised Freightliner Dealership who will re-program the Transmission Electronic Control Units (TECUs) with updated software.
