Daimler Truck Econic: Title Of Recall Srl250925 – Change Parameters In Front Radar Sensor (rdf) Control Unit – Rdf-hoe
Recall Summary Daimler Truck is recalling 41 vehicles (Econic, Actros, Arocs, Atego, and eActros models) because the front radar sensor was programmed with an incorrect installation height value. This incorrect setting could prevent the radar from properly detecting vehicles ahead, particularly on inclines, which may prevent the automatic braking system from activating when needed, or conversely, cause false detections of ground objects that trigger unnecessary braking. Daimler Truck will manually determine and reprogram the correct sensor height value in affected vehicles.

- Reason
- As part of our continuous quality monitoring we have identified that the vehicle-specific RDF3 (radar front end) installation height value has not been parameterized in Econic 956 Actros 963 Arocs 964 Atego 967 and eActros 983 model vehicles. Instead of the vehicle-specific installation height value a substitute value of 1 m has been entered. The substitute value is always higher than the actual installation situation. RDF3 is responsible for object recognition detecting clearance as well as close and long-range processing. It can also detect the ability to drive under and over objects...
