What this page shows
Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2014 Freightliner MT55, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.
Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

OUR 2014 FREIGHTLINER SPRINTER VAN HAS AIRBAG RECALLS THAT CAN NOT BE FIXED BECAUSE THERE ARE NO FREIGHTLINER DEALERS IN NEW YORK STATE. IN OTHER STATES THE RECALL CAN BE TAKEN CARE OF AT A MERCEDES BENZ DEALER BUT NOT IN NEW YORK STATE! I AM LOCATED IN ROCHESTER N.Y. AND HAVE BEEN TOLD WE HAVE TO TAKE IT TO PITTSBURG P.A. TO HAVE THE RECALL TAKEN CARE OF. PITTSBURG IS TO FAR AWAY! I HAVE TRIED MANY TIMES TO FIND SOMEONE IN NEW YORK STATE WHO CAN REPLACE THE AIRBAGS WITH NO SUCCESS. PLEASE HELP
Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.
Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
