End: 2023 Make: Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation (FCCC) Model: MT50e Walk-In Van Production Dates: Begin: October 18, 2021 End: June 24, 2022 Descriptive Information: Supplier alerted FCCC that they had experienced a failure during product validation testing for the MT50e electric axle (E-axle). Supplier discovered a fractured park pawl after completing a sever portion of their test course. If the park pawl is fractured, it could result in a false park. This could potentially impacts MT50e Walk-in vans built during the Pre-series phase of production. NOTE: Identify by body style or type. – MT50e, electric walk-in van Basis for Determination of the Recall Population: At the current time, all MT50e electric walk-in vans built during the pre-series phase, with start dates October 18, 2021 to June 24, 2022 are included in the recall population. However, as DTNA continues to investigate, the population may be decreased. The supplier of the E-Axle notified DTNA of the specific part with a potential defect.

Supplier discovered a fractured park pawl after completing a sever portion of their test course. If the park pawl is fractured, it could result in a false park. This could potentially impacts MT50e Walk-in vans built during the Pre-series phase of production. NOTE: • Identify by body style or type. – MT50e, electric walk-in van At the current time, all MT50e electric walk-in vans built during the pre-series phase, with start dates October 18, 2021 to June 24, 2022 are included in the recall population. However, as DTNA continues to investigate, the population may be decreased. The supplier of the E-Axle notified DTNA of the specific part with a potential defect.

Out of an abundance of caution, the supplier, while conducting product validation testing, discovered that after a severe portion of their test course, that a parking pawl was fractured. After the test results, the supplier tested again, at a lower speed, and discovered galling and damage to the pawl at the engagement site. A broken or damaged pawl could potentially result in the vehicle being set to park but roll away without the drivers intent if the parking brake is not set, contributing to an increased risk for crash or injury.
