FCA US has decided that certain vehicles fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 106 - Brake hoses. Constriction requirement states, "Except for that part of an end fitting which does not contain hose, every inside diameter of any section of a hydraulic brake hose assembly shall be not less than 64 percent of the nominal inside diameter of the brake hose." Brake hoses that have an out of specification orifice diameter have an inside diameter that is less than the 64 percent requirement.

The flanged wheel lug nuts on your vehicle may have been over-torqued during service to an incorrect torque specification in the Service & Owner's manuals. A yielded wheel stud may eventually break, which could lead to a wheel separating from the vehicle during operation. A wheel separating from the vehicle could cause a vehicle crash without prior warning and/or the wheel/tire could pose a risk to other vehicles or pedestrians.

The add on component separates the tail light signal from an actual brake signal so the customers no longer need to mess with their brake controller when towing as the Freightliner M2 Chassis applies brake signal to the four-way flashers, which in turn will activate the brakes of a towed item, such as a trailer. In some states, it is required to activate the vehicle four-way flashers on certain Grades.
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
