    I believe there is a recall on this issue now with Freightliner. Call your dealer with the Vin and have the Service Department
    check to see if yours is part of it.
     
    Waynetow Thanks this.

    Well, it appears as if enough people complained about this issue, there was a recall... Although Freightliner never sent me a notice, nor did the Dealership where I had got my service done say a word about the recall, they just quietly put notes on the invoice that the recall parts were on back order, and they would deal with it the next time I came in... NOT A WORD SAID ABOUT IT WHEN I PICKED UP THE TRUCK!?!

    Check for air leak.

    Knob is held with air pressure. In all front tank, rear tank and park brake tank pressure must be over 70 PSI to hold knob. Else it pops out/
