Component:
Interior lighting
Manufactured:
01/29/2001 - 10/06/2006
Affected:

Defect:
On certain trucks equipped with rear air conditioning system, the interior lamp is equipped with an 18w lamp and a scattering lens. in extremely hot and humid conditions, the combination of heat and humidity, and the heat from the lamp due to extreme long term operation, can distort the scattering lens.

Correction:
Dealers will replace the rear interior lamps free of charge with a modified version which is not subject to the impacts of heat and humidity. the recall began on december 17, 2007. owners may contact daimlerchrysler manufacturing international at 1-843-695-5041.

Affected:

Campaign:
16V833000 on 11/16/2016
Component:
Service brakes, hydraulic
Manufactured:
06/29/2003 - 08/30/2006
Affected:
17,501
Defect:
Daimler vans usa, llc (dvusa) is recalling certain model year 2003-2006 dodge and freightliner sprinter 2500 and 3500 vans manufactured june 30, 2003, to august 31, 2006. the instrument cluster on the affected vehicles fails to illuminate the brake warning lamp in the instrument cluster during the vehicle start up bulb-function check. as such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) number 105, "hydraulic and electric brake systems."
Consequence:
Without the brake lamp illuminating during the vehicle start up bulb-function check, the driver has no confirmation that the lamp is working and therefore may not know whether or not the lamp will illuminate if the brake fluid level is low. if the operator is unaware that the vehicle has low brake fluid, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
Correction:
Dvusa will notify owners, and dvusa and dodge dealers will correct the instrument cluster software, as necessary, free of charge. an interim notification was sent to owners on january 6, 2017. a second notice will be mailed to owners once the remedy becomes available. the recall began on july 27, 2017. owners may contact dvusa customer service at 1-770-705-2070.
Notes:
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.safercar.gov.
