Daimler Trucks North America is recalling more than 128,000 Freightliner Cascadia trucks over a potential brake lights issue, according to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration documents.

Daimler is recalling about 128,269 model year 2017-2021 Cascadia tractors due to the brake lights possibly remaining illuminated after the brake pedal has been released.

DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will replace the 3-pin brake pressure switch with a 2-pin switch along with a jumper harness for free.
