Country	United Kingdom
Category	Automotive
Published	2024-09-23
Manufacturer	DAIMLER TRUCK UK LIMITED
Models affected	ACTROS 963
Units affected	1450
Defect	The retrofitted DVS camera / sensor wiring harness along the chassis/cab frame may have been carried out incorrectly. As a result of an incorrectly installed DVS retrofitting scorching damage could occur in the area of the transition from the frame to the cab (swan neck) due to chafing of the wires. Depending on the nature of the damage / or level of chafing the possibility of a vehicle fire cannot be ruled out.
Remedy	As part of the planned field measure we will check the DVS retrofit was carried out on behalf of DTUK as to whether the retrofitting of the cables was carried out in accordance with the specifications in WIS and the Bodybuilder Guideline and therefore if the chassis/cab frame wiring harness is still routed correctly.
