Components POWER TRAIN
Potential Number of Units Affected 19
Summary
Daimler Trucks
North America, LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2021-2022 FCCC MT50e walk-in vans. The rotary shift position knob may malfunction, which can cause an unintended shift to drive.
Remedy
All vehicles have been remedied, therefore no owner notification letters are necessary. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA’s number for this recall is FL934.
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.nhtsa.gov.
NHTSA NS No. 22V-340
Manufacturer number: FL-934
There will be no publications for safety recall 22V-340.
All vehicles within this recall campaign have been repaired prior to the publication of a Dealer’s Bulletin or Owner Notification. All impacted serial numbers were inspected/repaired on 6/7/2022.
Chronology :
On a document dated May 9, 2022, BCS alerted DTNA of DNPR Plausibility Error Observations. Additional communication from the supplier (dated May 10, 2022) was received advising to limit all test vehicles equipped with this part to test track evaluation environments due to the Plausibility Error. DTNA promptly began an investigation; no warranty claims or other communications were found for this type of failure. May 13, 2022 out of an abundance of caution, DTNA decided to conduct a voluntary recall on MT50e walk-in vans. On June 3, 2022, we became aware of additional units that had shipped prior to the recall determination and amended the population accordingly. On June 27, 2022, we amended the start dates to match the population update from June 3, 2020, no impact to vehicle population. To date: DTNA has no reason to believe that the fault, artificially created in supplier fault injection testing, has ever occurred in the real world.

If a potentiometer in the switch is damaged, a plausibility error could occur, causing the part to send out a message that will be coded as drive (D) position rather than the appropriate error (ERR) position. NOTE: Identify by body style or type. – MT50e, electric walk-in van Basis for Determination of the Recall Population: At the current time, all MT50e electric walk-in vans built from June 22, 2021 to April 11, 2022 are included in the recall population. However, as DTNA continues to investigate, the population may be decreased. The supplier of the multi-switch notified DTNA of the specific part with a potential defect. Number potentially involved: 19 Estimated percentage of involved with defect: 100% Defect / Noncompliance Description For this Defect/Noncompliance: Describe the defect or noncompliance: MT50e electric walk-in vans are equipped with a rotary DNRP selector that has two potentiometers inside. Out of an abundance of caution, the supplier did fault-injection testing to determine what would happen in certain unlikely failure modes. In one case, the supplier reported that an unlikely failure mode, if one of the potentiometers is damaged, it could cause a plausibility error that the part would send out a message coded as the D position rather than the appropriate ERR position. Therefore, if this part has damage, there is potential that the vehicle could have Drive selected without the driver’s intent. Describe the safety risk: Failure mode could result in an unintended shift into drive. Identify any warning which can precede or occur: No known warning. If applicable, identify the manufacture of the defective or noncompliant component.: BCS Automotive Interface Solutions (BCS-AIS; BCS) Involved Components Component Name: Stalk Switch Right Shifter Component Description: Stalk Switch Right Shifter with Park Position Component Part Number: DTNA: 06-87751-008 BCS: 17045623-01 Chronology of Defect / Noncompliance Determination Provide the chronology of events leading up to the defect decision or test data for the noncompliance decision: On a document dated May 9, 2022, BCS alerted DTNA of DNPR Plausibility Error Observations.

North America, LLC Submission Date : JUN 03, 2022 NHTSA Recall No. : 22V-340 Manufacturer Recall No. : FL934 Manufacturer Information : Manufacturer Name : Daimler Trucks
North America, LLC Address : 4747 N. Channel Avenue Portland OR 97217-3849 Company phone : 800-745-8000 Population : Number of potentially involved : 19 Estimated percentage with defect : 100 % Vehicle Information : Vehicle 1 : 2021-2022 FCCC MT50e Vehicle Type : BUSES, MEDIUM & HEAVY VEHICLES Body Style : Power Train : NR Descriptive Information : Supplier alerted FCCC that they had discovered a potential for failure in certain FCCC MT50e model walk-in vans are equipped with a rotary knob managing transmission shift position functionality. If a potentiometer in the switch is damaged, a plausibility error could occur, causing the part to send out a message that will be coded as drive (D) position rather than the appropriate error (ERR) position. Production Dates : JUN 22, 2021 – APR 11, 2022 VIN Range 1 : Begin : NR End : NR Not sequential Description of Defect : Description of the Defect : MT50e electric walk-in vans are equipped with a rotary DNRP selector that has two potentiometers inside. Out of an abundance of caution, the supplier did fault-injection testing to determine what would happen in certain unlikely failure modes. In one case, the supplier reported that an unlikely failure mode, if one of the potentiometers is damaged, it could cause a plausibility error that the part would send out a message coded as the D position rather than the appropriate ERR position. Therefore, if this part has damage, there is potential that the vehicle could have Drive selected without the driver’s intent, contributing to an increased risk for crash or injury. FMVSS 1 : NR FMVSS 2 : NR Description of the Safety Risk : Failure mode could result in an unintended shift into drive. Description of the Cause : NR Part 573 Safety Recall Report 22V-340 Page 2 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Identification of Any Warning that can Occur : No known warning. Involved Components : Component Name 1 : Stalk Switch Right Shifter Component Description : Stalk Switch Right Shifter with Park Position Component Part Number : 06-87751-008 Supplier Identification : Component Manufacturer Name : BCS Automotive Interface Solutions Address : Industriestr. 2-8 Germany Foreign States 78315 Country : Germany Chronology : On a document dated May 9, 2022, BCS alerted DTNA of DNPR Plausibility Error Observations. Additional communication from the supplier (dated May 10, 2022) was received advising to limit all test vehicles equipped with this part to test track evaluation environments due to the Plausibility Error. DTNA promptly began an investigation; no warranty claims or other communications were found for this type of failure. May 13, 2022 out of an abundance of caution, DTNA decided to conduct a voluntary recall on MT50e walk-in vans. On June 3, 2022, we became aware of additional units that had shipped prior to the recall determination and amended the population accordingly. To date: DTNA has no reason to believe that the fault, artificially created in supplier fault injection testing, has ever occurred in the real world. Part 573 Safety Recall Report 22V-340 Page 3 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Description of Remedy : Description of Remedy Program : Inspection and repair of the Stalk Switch Right Shifter, if required, will be performed by Daimler Truck North America authorized service facilities. Daimler Truck North America shall be offering a refund for owner-paid repairs covered by this recall if the repair was performed prior to the date indicated in the reimbursement plan, which will be posted with owner’s notification letter. Owners are directed to seek reimbursement through authorized dealers. How Remedy Component Differs from Recalled Component : NR Identify How/When Recall Condition was Corrected in Production : NR Recall Schedule : Description of Recall Schedule : Customer notification will be made by first class mail using Daimler Trucks
North America records to determine the customers affected. Planned Dealer Notification Date : JUL 14, 2022 – JUL 14, 2022 Planned Owner Notification Date : JUL 14, 2022 – JUL 14, 2022 * NR – Not Reported
