Daimler Trucks North America is recalling 285 vehicles across several model lines, including 2025 Freightliner Custom Chassis, Western Star trucks, and Thomas Built Buses. The recall affects specific models such as the Freightliner M2, 108SD, 114SD, and the Thomas Built Saf-T-Liner C2 due to wheel hub fasteners that may loosen. If these fasteners loosen, the wheel can detach from the vehicle while in motion, which may lead to a sudden loss of control. Owners can have their vehicles inspected and repaired by a dealer free of charge.
The wheel hub fasteners can become loose, potentially causing the entire wheel to detach from the axle while the vehicle is being driven. This detachment would cause an immediate loss of steering or vehicle stability, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.
