2015 FREIGHTLINER 1085D; 2015 FREIGHTLINER M2
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Certain 2015 Freightliner Refuse vehicles that have been modified to run on Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) are being recalled because their CNG system valve knobs can be overtightened. If the knob is turned more than one turn, the valve's snap ring may fail, causing the valve stem to forcibly eject from the valve body. This creates a risk of injury to people in the path of the ejected part and can cause unintended release of CNG, which increases fire risk.
A-1 Auto Electric is notifying owners about the recall, and dealers will strengthen the snap ring free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on March 5, 2019. According to the record, affected consumers should contact A-1 customer service at 1-559-485-4427.

A-1 Auto Electric (A-1) is recalling certain 2015 Freightliner Refuse vehicles modified to be powered by Compressed Natural Gas (CNG). The CNG system has tanks with a one-turn for controlling CNG flow. If the valve knob is turned more than one turn, the valve's snap ring may fail and the valve stem may forcibly eject from the valve body. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 304, "Compressed Natural gas Fuel Container Integrity."
