Daimler Trucks Recalls 2014-2015 FCCC Chassis for Propane Leak Risk

Daimler Trucks North America is recalling 2014-2015 FCCC truck chassis because improperly secured propane fuel injectors or leaking tubes may cause a stall or fire.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (fuel system) that poses a risk of fire and vehicle stall, which aligns with the 'Severe' criteria for significant injury/property-damage reports or structural defects.

Plain-English summary

Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 FCCC S2G, MT45G, and MT55G truck chassis manufactured between September 17, 2013, and August 27, 2014. The affected vehicles may be equipped with LPI fuel rails for 6 and 8 liter engines. The propane fuel injectors in these fuel rails may not be properly secured by the retainer clip, and a fuel delivery tube may leak.

Either condition may result in a propane leak which may cause a stall. Additionally, leaking propane in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.

DTNA will notify owners, and Daimler Trucks North America authorized service facilities or CleanFuel USA authorized repair facilities will verify the proper installation of the injector retainer clip and replace any leaking fuel delivery tubes, free of charge. The recall began on November 21, 2014. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL-667.
