WHEELS:HUB
- The defect
- Daimler Trucks North America, LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2025 Freightliner Custom Chassis MC, MT45, MT45G, MT55, S2C 106, S2RV 106, XBS, XCM, XCP, XCR, XCS, Freightliner 108SD, 114SD, Business Class M2, Western Star 47X, 49X, 57X, and Thomas Built Buses Saf-T-Liner C2 transit buses, cabs, and chassis. The wheel hub fasteners may loosen and cause the wheel to detach, which can result in a loss of vehicle control.
- What it can cause
- A loss of vehicle control increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and replace the hub nut retaining system, wheel end, and axle components, as necessary free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 18, 2024. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 800-745-8000. DTNA's number for this recall is F1002.
- 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 285 vehicles this is a small campaign: 56% of the 17,783 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one are as large or larger. The middle campaign among them covers 471. It covers one model year, 2025, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2024, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Freightliner vehicles have been recalled over the wheels 4 times before this, most recently in December 2022 as 22V919000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 32 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V702000 (structure), 26V660000 (fuel system, diesel), 26V635000 (structure), 26V523000 (fuel system, diesel).
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 June 3, 2024 as campaign 24V393000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
