Daimler Trucks is recalling certain 2009–2011 Freightliner Cascadia, Century, Columbia, Coronado, M2, and Western Star 4900 heavy trucks manufactured between February 19, 2009, and July 9, 2010. These vehicles are equipped with specific DD13 and DD15 engines that contain Bosch high pressure fuel pump elements which may crack due to hydrogen induced stress corrosion. A cracked fuel pump element can cause a diesel fuel leak.
If a fuel leak goes undetected and continues, fuel may spill onto the roadway, increasing the risk of a crash. Daimler Trucks will notify owners, and dealers will repair affected vehicles at no charge. Owners of recalled vehicles should contact Daimler Trucks toll-free at 1-800-547-0712.
