• Feux et instruments#202015814 avril 2020

  873 unités visées

  Problème : Sur certains camions équipés de garde-boue ""Fleet Engineer"", le support des garde-boue pourrait recouvrir partiellement le ruban réfléchissant arrière. La réglementation canadienne exige que le ruban réfléchissant soit visible à l'arrière du camion. Risque pour la sécurité : Un ruban réfléchissant qui est masqué pourrait rendre le camion moins visible pour les autres et créer un risque accru de collision. Mesures correctives : Daimler Trucks of North America (DTNA) doit aviser les propriétaires par la poste et leur demander d'amener leur camion à un centre de service DTNA autorisé pour faire inspecter le ruban réfléchissant. Il sera déplacé si nécessaire afin d'être conforme à la réglementation.

• Suspension#201839530 juillet 2018

  32 unités visées

  Sur certains camions, les vibrations de frein et la corrosion pourraient causer la fatigue et la défaillance du tube de biellette de direction, ce qui pourrait séparer les roues avant et réduire la capacité de diriger le véhicule et donc augmenter les risques de collision causant des blessures ou des dommages matériels. Mesure corrective : Les installations d'entretien Daimler Trucks of North America doit remplacer, au besoin, les garnitures de freins, les porte-segments de frein et les biellettes de direction.

• Freins#201758328 novembre 2017

  41 763 unités visées

  Dans certains véhicules munis de freins pneumatiques, après un certain nombre d'applications brusques des freins, le manocontact des feux de freinage pourrait ne pas actionner les feux de freinage avec une légère pression exercée sur la pédale de frein. Si les feux de freinage ne s'allument pas, les autres usagers de la route qui suivent le véhicule touché ne sauront pas que le conducteur a l'intention de faire ralentir son véhicule, ce qui pourrait augmenter les risques d'accident pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Mesure corrective : Les installations de service autorisées de Daimler Trucks North America répareront le contacteur de pression des feux de freinage.

• Roues#201641930 août 2016

  149 unités visées

  Dans certains véhicules, la limite de charge spécifiée pour l'essieu avant pourrait être supérieure à la capacité du moyeu. Une charge sur essieu qui dépasse la capacité de charge maximale du moyeu posera un risque accru de fatigue du moyeu, ce qui pourrait causer un détachement complet d'une roue ou plus et une perte de maîtrise du véhicule. Cela augmenterait les risques d'accident pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les moyeux d'essieu avant dont la limite spécifiée est incorrecte.

• Freins#20132994 septembre 2013

  4 unités visées

  Sur certains véhicules, les boulons de fixation des étriers de frein pourraient ne pas avoir été suffisamment serrés pendant le montage du véhicule. Des boulons lâches pourraient permettre à un étrier de se détacher de sa fixation, ce qui pourrait résulter en une perte partielle des freins. Cela pourrait augmenter les distances de freinage, ce qui pourrait résulter en un accident endommageant des biens matériels ou blessant quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront serrer les boulons de fixation des étriers de frein au couple de serrage spécifié.

• Feux et instruments#20131108 avril 2013

  15 unités visées

  Dans certains véhicules, le tableau de bord pourrait indiquer un message erroné du frein de stationnement. Si le contact est coupé et que la portière du chauffeur est ouverte (avant que le frein de stationnement ne soit serré) le message « Park Brake On » (Frein de stationnement serré) peut s'afficher au lieu du message « Park Brake off Door Open » (Frein de stationnement desserré, Portière ouverte). Si le véhicule était stationné sur une pente suffisante, ce défaut pourrait occasionner le déplacement involontaire du véhicule et causer des dommages matéraux et/ou des blessures corporelles. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront mettre à jour le logiciel de module de commande du tableau de bord.

• Feux et instruments#201308615 mars 2013

  3 549 unités visées

  Dans certains véhicules ayant des clignotants configurés pour agir en tant que feux de jour (FDJ), les FDJ peuvent ne pas se réactiver à la suite de leur fonctionnement en tant que clignotant. Une perte d'éclairage des FDJ pourrait rendre le véhicule moins visible pour les autres automobilistes et pour les piétons pendant le jour, ce qui pourrait causer un accident, endommager des biens matériels ou blesser quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront reprogrammer les véhicules en leur ajoutant un logiciel mis à jour.
