What’s wrong with it?

THESE CONDITIONS COULD RESULT IN THE OUTER BEARING GENERATING EXCESSIVE HEAT AND/OR BREAKING, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO BECOME DISABLED. THE EXCESSIVE HEAT COULD CAUSE A FIRE.

ON CERTAIN TRUCKS USING AN F060T OR F070T FRONT AXLE, THE FRONT WHEEL HUB OUTER BEARING LOCK NUT MAY HAVE BEEN IMPROPERLY TIGHTENED DURING ASSEMBLY, AND AN INSUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF GREASE MAY HAVE BEEN APPLIED TO THE OUTER BEARING.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
