Designed for unsurpassed peace of mind, 24/7 Direct gives you access to trained Freightliner personnel with an average of 19 years’ experience.

In many cases, if you’re willing to try a few things, our technicians can get you back on the road. If not, they’ll send out a technician who can.
From general support to technical inquiries or breakdown assistance, our friendly phone support team is ready for anything – and can even arrange for roadside assistance, should it be necessary. Simply call 1-800-FTL-HELP.
FCCC also offers the largest, most comprehensive service network in the industry, with 450+ Freightliner-branded service locations throughout North America. To locate a service center, click here.

Fuel Tank
The MB Chassis comes with a 60-, 80- or 90-gallon rectangular steel fuel tank mounted between the rails for increased safety and reduced fuel stops.
Lowered Engine Position
A lowered engine position provides a flat floor in the cockpit area, enabling drivers to safely move from cockpit to passenger area without having to step over a “doghouse.”
Viscous Fan Clutch
The MB’s viscous fan clutch only activates when triggered by engine temperature, which means you get where you are going faster. It also reduces load on the engine, provides more available horsepower and increases fuel economy – all with less engine noise.
