I took this bus to the Freightliner dealer two years ago, they have since refused to work on RVs, with a sticking brake issue, I have been having to pull the pedal up with my toe after any hard stop to get the brakes to release, They couldn't find anything wrong. This is great! now maybe I will have real brakes and can put the rubber pad back on my pedal! The recall is for freightliner chassis from 2005 to 2011 and is campaign number FL628A

the campaign phone number is 800-547-0712 7 am to 4 pm
I just had mine done last week, 2007 Crescendo 378 FRED Frieghtliner Chassis.

Never had any issues with the brakes, I put over 12K on this last year.

19K on the Clock

They installed 4 new Loaded calipers (includes Pads) and new fluid so My brake system is Brand new now.
