Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2002-2017 Freightliner Cascadia, Century Class, Columbia and Coronado trucks and Western Star 4700, 4900, 5700, 5900 and 6900 trucks. These vehicles are equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers that may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable. For a full list of the affected fire extinguisher models visit: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17E062-5427.pdf
ON CERTAIN TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH VEHICLE IMPROVEMENT STEERING WHEELS, THE STEERING WHEELS MAY BE MANUFACTURED WITH INCORRECT LENGTH HUCK FASTENERS THAT ARE TOO SHORT TO ALLOW PROPER COLLAR ENGAGEMENT ON THE PIN. THE STEERING WHEEL WILL FEEL LOOSE ON THE HUB FOR A PERIOD OF TIME, WITH THE SUBSEQUENT POSSIBILITY OF A COMPLETE SEPARATION.
