Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2019 Fleetwood Discover on a Freightliner chassis I turned my
retarder on this morning coming down a hill and it made a big clunk.
I turned it off and then my service engine light came on.

The exhaust brake? Take a look and see what might have broken. This is probably not the best site to get heavy truck advice. I would think you probably still have warranty coverage.

Take it to a Freightliner dealer and get it looked at. What brand is the engine?
