2022 Freightliner Cascadia Recall 22V456: ABS Fault Codes

Recall 22V456 covers 17 2022 Freightliner Cascadia trucks with ABS fault-code storage defects that impair warnings and diagnostics. Freightliner will repurchase them.

Freightliner is recalling 17 2022 Cascadia trucks because the ABS fault codes are not stored after the vehicle is keyed off for more than 5 seconds. Without saved fault codes, the system can fail to warn the driver or prevent a proper repair, which increases crash risk; Freightliner dealers will complete the free repair.

What's wrong?

The brake electronic control unit on the 2022 Freightliner Cascadia is the brake controller for the air brake ABS system. ABS helps keep the wheels from locking during braking, and the controller stores fault codes so a technician can diagnose a problem. It also controls the ABS warning light that tells the driver when the system has detected a fault.

On affected Cascadia trucks, the controller does not keep ABS fault information after the key has been off for more than 5 seconds. That means a fault present before shutdown is not saved for later service diagnosis. The issue impairs the diagnostic function and warning light behavior required for the air brake system.

The warning sign is the ABS light while the fault is active, before the key-off cycle happens. After the truck is keyed off, the stored fault information is not retained, so a driver or service technician loses that saved clue.

Who's affected?

Both listed brake components trace to the same brake electronic control unit part.

Not every 2022 Freightliner Cascadia truck is on the list. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific truck is included.

What's the safety risk?

An ABS system that fails to store fault codes can leave the driver without a warning or prevent proper repair, increasing the risk of a crash. If the ABS light comes on before key off, treat it as a real warning and schedule service soon. Repair is free at any franchised Freightliner dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2022 Freightliner Cascadia is included in this recall.
  2. Contact Freightliner customer service at 1-800-547-0712 to start the repurchase process.
  3. Reference recall number 22V456 and Freightliner recall FL943 when you call.
  4. Drive cautiously until Freightliner gives repurchase instructions; the ABS warning light and diagnostic fault-code storage are unreliable in this recall.
