The defect
Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Freightliner Cascadia vehicles. The brake caliper mounting bolts on these vehicles may not been properly tightened, potentially resulting in the caliper detaching.
The risk
If the calipers detach, there would be reduced braking performance, increasing the risk of a crash.
