What’s wrong with it?

WHEN TRUCK IS LOADED, CONTACT BETWEEN HUB NUT AND HUBEND CAP COULD CAUSE NUT TO BECOME BACKED OFF AND RESULT IN THE WHEEL BECOMINGLOOSE CAUSING FAILURE OF THE BEARING AND/OR AXLE WHICH COULD RESULT IN ANACCIDENT.

DUE TO IMPROPER SEATING, THERE COULD BE A CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE WEAR WASHER AND AXLE LUG, OR BETWEEN THE WEAR WASHER AND THE INNER RACE OF THE 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.
