2006 Freightliner XC recalls, newest first

December 10, 2007NHTSA 07V57000010,053 vehicles potentially affected

Steering › Hydraulic power assist system

Summary: On certain motor home chassis built using inline power steering filters, part no. 14-16829-000, the filter can plug due to failure of the screen adhesion to the filter housing causing a rise in return line pressure. This can lead to hose separation from the filter or steering gear fitting resulting in a sudden loss of steering fluid and power assist.
Consequence: Sudden loss of steering assist without warning involving a motor home could be a problem for certain drivers increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the affected filters with a larger filter. The recall began on July 2, 2008. Owners may contact freightliner at 1-800-547-0712.
