Daimler Truck North America LLC (DTNA), on behalf of its Freightliner Truck Division and wholly owned subsidiary Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation (FCCC), has decided a defect that relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2020 to 2022 model year Freightliner 108SD, 114SD, and Business Class M2 vehicles; and FCCC Shuttle, Business Class M2, and S2RV chassis model vehicles that is equipped with Altec equipment. On the affected vehicles, the spline teeth in the windshield wiper arms may wear.

If the driver has operated the windshield wipers as part of the recommended pre-trip inspection, the defect would likely be detectable during the inspection.
About Technical Service Bulletins
A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) is a document issued by a vehicle manufacturer to its dealers, describing a known issue with a specific vehicle or set of vehicles and the recommended procedure to fix it. Unlike recalls, TSBs are not mandatory and are typically only performed if an owner reports the related issue. However, TSBs can be an indicator of common problems with a vehicle.
