Issue
On certain trucks, the hubs on the steer axle may not contain any lubricant. This may result in wheel bearing damage, and in extreme cases, could cause a wheel to separate from the truck.
Safety risk
A wheel separation could increase the risk of a crash. A wheel that separates could also hit another person or vehicle.
Corrective actions
The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a Daimler Trucks North America authorized service facility to inspect and repair the steer axle hubs as required.
Background
Visit Transport Canada’s Motor Vehicle Safety Recalls Database for the original recall.
