The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Also filed against: 2024 Freightliner E-Cascadia; 2025 Freightliner E-Cascadia; 2024 Freightliner EM2; 2025 Freightliner EM2.

None of these model years has a page on this site (it covers EPA-certified cars, trucks and SUVs from 2016), so the bulletin is listed here on its own.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Freightliner SF704 a recall?

No. A service campaign is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls.

Is the SF704 repair free?

A service campaign is usually paid by the manufacturer on the vehicles it names, within the terms and time limit the document sets; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

Which vehicles does SF704 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 4 model years: 2024 Freightliner E-Cascadia, 2025 Freightliner E-Cascadia, 2024 Freightliner EM2, 2025 Freightliner EM2. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
