Fccc recall: Electrical system

What is wrong

Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Freightliner Custom Chassis XCL, XCP, XCR and XCS and 2015-2019 Custom Chassis XCM vehicles. The instrument panel brightness cannot be adjusted, possibly causing glare when driving at night. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 101, "Control and Displays."

What could happen

Glare can reduce the driver's visibility of the road, thus increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

DTNA will notify owner, and dealers will update the software and processor, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on April 1, 2021. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL-859.
