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 402 vehicles this is a small campaign: 51% 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 2025 to 2026, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2025, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Freightliner vehicles have been recalled over the service brakes, air 54 times before this, most recently in May 2025 as 25V295000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 18 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V475000 (exterior lighting), 26V079000 (electrical system), 26V066000 (steering), 25V760000 (suspension).
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 September 12, 2025 as campaign 25V601000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
