Freightliner charging for warranty covered items

Freightliner has charmed me for several DEF repairs. Even though I have a 5yr/500,000 mi Detroit warranty that states it covers the aftertreatment system. They claim Freightliner parts are not covered.

I have brought the truck to Detroit and the have done the same repairs & covered it 100% under the warranty.

Freightliner warranty people are worthless & refuse to cover anything.

I purchased my truck to pull a dump trailer. Told the dealership what I wanted the truck for. After using the truck for less than 6 months I had issues with the heating system. I was told sand caused the problem there for it was not co vered they told me it would be over $3000 to replace the heating system. There filter system allows sand into the heating duct work & they tell me that's extreme conditions so it's not covered.

What the hell did they think I was going to haul it a dump trailer.
Do not expect Freightliner to cover anything !!!!!

Also there is up to a 2 day to 2 week wait to get into most Freightliner Dealerships for any repair.

Whatever you do stay away from Freightliner trucks. They spend more time in the shop then on the road.

Freightliner is going to put me out of business !!!
