Recall 1998006

The issue

On certain trucks, the non-drive axle front axle hubs could experience hub flange fatigue cracking under normal operating conditions. Fatigue cracking could result in wheel separation and the possibility of an accident without prior warning. Correction: Vehicles will be inspected and hubs will be replaced as required.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, il se peut qu’à l’usage les moyeux de l’essieu avant non moteur se fissurent par fatigue au niveau du flasque. Si c’est le cas, il se pourrait alors qu’une roue se détache subitement et que le véhicule ait un accident. Correction : Les véhicules devront être inspectés et les moyeux remplacés au besoin.
