The recall, identified as NHTSA Recall No. 25V-046, involves approximately 810 units of the 2020-2025 Freightliner eCascadia and the 2022-2026 Freightliner eM2 models. The issue stems from a faulty Electric Vehicle Power Distribution Module (EVDM), where the connector plate assembly may detach from its housing, potentially disconnecting circuits.

Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) has identified that vehicles manufactured before mid-January 2025 are affected, as newer models incorporate an updated EVDM that resolves the issue.
