Due to a manufacturing defect, the turn signal indicator lamps may not operate as intended when the lever on the combination switch is activated, and the instrument cluster indicator lamps may not illuminate.
If the turn signal indicators do not work as intended, other road users may be unable to identify if the vehicle is turning, which can increase the risk of an accident causing serious injury or death to the vehicle occupants and other road users.
If you’re an owner of an affected vehicle, please contact the nearest authorised Daimler Truck dealership to book an appointment to rectify the truck as soon as possible, free of charge.
