  "excerpt": "Freightliner Truck. Published by Transport Canada as 1981032 on 6 March 1981. System: Not Entered. What the notice says Cotter pins may be missing at the ball joint connections of the drag link ends and tie rod ends in the lower front axle steering system. this can result in disconnection of the drag link causing loss of steering control. Is your vehicle included? Check with your VIN at Transport Canada , or ask a dealer. This page is an independent copy of the notice, kept so you can see what changed after it was published. It is not the authority, and the authority’s own text is the one to act on. This site holds seven national and European registers. Freightliner TRUCK is named on 32 American notices. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules. Daimler Trucks recall 11V465 - Model Year 2006-2012 Freightliner Business Class M2, Casca... Daimler Trucks recall 11V455 - Model Year 2005 Through 2012 Freightliner M2, Sterling Act... Daimler Trucks recall 11V257 - Model Year 2011-2012 Freightliner Cascadia, M2, and Wester... Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register. COTTER PINS MAY BE MISSING AT THE BALL JOINT CONNECTIONS OF THE DRAG LINK ENDS AND TIE ROD ENDS IN THE LOWER FRONT AXL",
