Manufacturer: Daimler Trucks North America LLC
Manufacturer Campaign Number: FL-718
Manufactured Begin Date: March 15th, 2013
Manufactured End Date: July 29th, 2016

Defect Summary:
Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain model year 2014-2017 Freightliner M2 Business Class, 108 SD, 114 SD, Cascadia, Coronado, Western Star 4700, 4800, and 5700 XE trucks manufactured March 15, 2013, to July 29, 2016 and equipped with Conmet aluminum non-high capacity hubs.
