ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- The defect
- Excellance, Inc (Excellance) is recalling certain 2022 Freightliner M2 emergency vehicles. An additional resistor was incorrectly installed on the printed circuit board, which can disrupt CAN network communication and cause vehicle lighting to fail.
- What it can cause
- Inoperative vehicle lighting can reduce visibility and increase the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the modules, free of charge. Owners may contact Excellance's customer service at 1-800-882-9799.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 3 vehicles this is a small campaign: 97% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2022, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Excellance, Inc with NHTSA on September 15, 2022 as campaign 22V690000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
