Fontaine Modification Company is recalling 280 Freightliner Business Class M2 vehicles from the 2024 and 2025 model years. These vehicles were assembled with a steering gearbox that may contain insufficient oil. This lack of lubrication can cause the gears to bind, which makes the vehicle difficult to steer. Fontaine Modification will inspect and replace the steering gearbox free of charge to resolve the issue.
Insufficient oil in the steering gearbox can cause internal gears to bind or lock up. This makes the vehicle much harder to steer, which significantly increases the risk of a crash.
Inspection and potential replacement of the steering gearbox.
Modified by Fontaine Modification Company; steering gearbox assembly contains insufficient oil.
