I'm at the dealership, have been here for 4 days, the dash board have shown engine, check engine and stop engine fault codes. The truck started to lose power. I pulled in the dealership back in Wednesday when the engine performance was limited to 55 mph. After that while waiting to be seen the stop engine fault cose came and it was limited to 5 mph. After the dealership did some testing and an overhead they stated today that the DEF one box needs to be replaced and costs 9000 $ i've had that truck for less than 3 months and I'm leasing to landstar, any advice on that issue as I'm thinking of letting the truck be repossessed.
Got Stuck! DEF one box for 2017 FreightLiner cascadia.

I would do all I could to keep from having a repossession on my record. That messes up your credit for years. If you happen to be anywhere near Little Rock I could give you the name of a guy that would fix that truck for $2,500 and that would be the end of emission problems.

Yes, avoid having a repo on your credit report if at all possible. Your credit would be trashed and you won't be able to finance anything over the price of a stamp.

How many miles/hours are on the truck? Was it equipped with APU prior to purchase?

I just did One-Box on my 2016 Cascadia. Plus injectors are the same time, that’s what caused the One-Box to fail.
About $23,000 job all together. Fortunately I have extended warranty so it was covered.Dave_in_AZ and truckdriver31 Thank this. -

You don't want a repo on your record! But I understand your feelings of hopelessness.
After throwing 11grand at my emissions system in 10 months I had it " fixed" once and for all last spring ...you won't regret it and truck hasn't been in the shop since for anything emissions related ..
