Issue

Issue:
On certain trucks, the daytime running lamps (DRLs) may not be bright enough to meet Canadian regulations.
Note: This recall only affects trucks equipped with LED headlamps.

Safety Risk:
Daytime running lamps that aren't bright enough could make the truck less visible to others and increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
Daimler Truck North America (DTNA) will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a DTNA authorized service facility to update the vehicle software.
