Issue: rnCertain buses built on a Freightliner XBS chassis could have a problem with the rear-mounted Power Distribution Module (PDM). This could cause the tail lights not to work properly. rnrnSafety Risk: rnBrake lights or turn signals that do not work could cause a following driver not to recognize that a vehicle ahead is braking or intends to turn. This could increase the risk of a crash.rnrnCorrective Actions: rnDaimler Trucks North America (DTNA) will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their bus to a DTNA authorized service facility to inspect and repair the PDM as necessary.
