EQUIPMENT
- The defect
- Daimler Trucks North America, LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2021-2023 Freightliner Coronado vehicles equipped with a foldable upper bunk. The mounting pivot bolts for the upper bunk may not have been tightened properly and may loosen.
- What it can cause
- A loose mounting pivot bolt may cause the upper bunk to fall, increasing the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will tighten the mounting pivot bolt, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 29, 2023. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL964.
- 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 192 vehicles this is a small campaign: 61% 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 model years 2021 to 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Freightliner vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 32 times before this, most recently in May 2022 as 22V338000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 3 other recalls published here: 23V105000 (steering), 20V634000 (equipment), 20V211000 (equipment).
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 Daimler Trucks North America, LLC with NHTSA on February 9, 2023 as campaign 23V063000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
