Issue
On certain trucks, the stainless steel cover for the side air-intake on the hood may not be properly attached. As a result, the intake cover could detach from the truck while driving.
Safety Risk
An air-intake cover that detaches from the truck could create a hazard for other drivers and nearby people, and could increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions
Daimler Truck North America (DTNA) will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a DTNA authorized service facility to replace the side air-intake cover on the hood.
