- The defect
- Mitsubishi Fuso Truck of America, Inc. (MFTA) is recalling certain 2024 FEC7K and FEC9K vehicles. Due to a control unit counter error, the vehicle may shut down unexpectedly, which can result in a loss of drive power.
- What it can cause
- A loss of drive power can increase the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will reprogram vehicle control unit and instrument panel control unit, free of charge. None of the affected vehicles have been sold, so therefore no owner notification letters will be sent. Owners may contact MFTA customer service at 1-877-771-0707. MFTA's number for this recall is C10126.
- 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 175 vehicles this is a small campaign: 63% 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, 2024, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2024, 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 Mitsubishi Fuso Truck of America, Inc. with NHTSA on February 6, 2024 as campaign 24V072000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
