Volvo Trucks North America is recalling one 2024 VNL truck because the bearing journals in the steering knuckle assembly may not be properly seated. This defect can prevent the wheel end hub assembly from being installed correctly, leading to potential oil leaks. If left unaddressed, the axle spindles can loosen or fracture, which significantly increases the risk of a crash. Hendrickson will inspect and replace the steering knuckle assembly if necessary at no cost to the owner.
