Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Daimler Vans USA is recalling certain 2003-2006 Dodge and Freightliner Sprinter 2500 and 3500 vans manufactured between June 30, 2003, and August 31, 2006. The instrument cluster on these vehicles fails to illuminate the BRAKE warning lamp during the vehicle startup bulb-function check, which means drivers cannot confirm the lamp is working. If the brake fluid level becomes low, drivers may not receive the warning and could be unaware of a potential brake system problem, increasing the risk of a crash.
DVUSA will notify owners and correct the instrument cluster software free of charge at Dodge dealers. An initial notification was sent to owners on January 6, 2017, and a second notice will be mailed once the remedy becomes available. The recall began on July 27, 2017. Owners can contact DVUSA customer service at 1-770-705-2070.

Without the BRAKE lamp illuminating during the vehicle start up bulb-function check, the driver has no confirmation that the lamp is working and therefore may not know whether or not the lamp will illuminate if the brake fluid level is low. If the operator is unaware that the vehicle has low brake fluid, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
DVUSA will notify owners, and DVUSA and Dodge dealers will correct the instrument cluster software, as necessary, free of charge. An interim notification was sent to owners on January 6, 2017. A second notice will be mailed to owners once the remedy becomes available. The recall began on July 27, 2017. Owners may contact DVUSA customer service at 1-770-705-2070.
