Most trucks manufactured after 2010 require DEF to operate, and a shortage could sideline a significant portion of the U.S. trucking fleet. There is speculation that the shortage is linked to urea being diverted to fertilizer production or potential ESG-driven market manipulation.

The fluid, which is primarily urea, reportedly freezes in cold temperatures and emits a strong odor similar to cat urine.
