Issue
On certain trucks, the compliance label lists an incorrect Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). This could lead to overloading and cause poor handling or a tire failure.
Safety Risk
Poor handling or a tire failure could cause a loss of control and result in a crash.
Corrective Actions
Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take the truck to a DTNA authorized service facility to install a label with the correct GAWR.
