2017 Freightliner 114SD recalls
Unapproved tires and rims can raise crash risk
Certain heavy-duty trucks were built or equipped with tires and rims that are not approved or rated for the vehicle by the Tire and Rim Association or the tire manufacturer.
Battery cable can rub on cab and cause fire risk
The battery cable on certain Autohaulers built on Freightliner 114SD chassis may contact the bottom of the cab when the cab moves during operation.
Insufficient air brake reservoir may reduce braking, raising crash risk
Some heavy trucks may have an air brake reservoir (tank) that is too small to meet federal brake standards.
Loose Steering Bolts Can Cause Loss of Steering Control
Certain 2017 Freightliner custom chassis trucks may have loose steering and tie rod arm bolts.
Loose Brake Caliper Bolts May Reduce Braking Power
Certain 2017 FCCC chassis equipped with air disc brakes may have brake caliper mounting bolts that were not tightened enough at the factory, so the bolts can loosen over time.
Air brake valve may be missing, risking sudden parking brake application
Some Freightliner M2 Business Class, 108SD, and 114SD trucks from model years 2015 through 2017 may be missing a required check valve in one port of the spring brake modulation valve.
Instrument Cluster May Freeze, Disabling Turn Signals
Trucks that were modified to use both a left-hand and a right-hand instrument cluster may have incompatible displays.
Loose Brake Caliper Bolts Can Reduce Braking
Some trucks may have brake caliper mounting bolts that were not torqued correctly at the factory.
Front Wheel Hubs May Fail, Causing Wheel Separation
Certain heavy-duty trucks built between March 2013 and July 2016 are equipped with aluminum non-high capacity front axle hubs that may be too weak for the front axle weight rating specified for the vehicle.
Rear brake caliper may contact suspension, reducing braking
Some trucks may have a rear disc brake caliper installed incorrectly, allowing the caliper to contact the spring suspension.
