Volvo Trucks North America is recalling 3 of its 2025 VN trucks because the tie rod assemblies may contain an improperly heat-treated ball stud. This part can fail suddenly, causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle's steering. Volvo Trucks will inspect and replace the tie rod ends free of charge to resolve the safety issue.
A ball stud failure can lead to a sudden and complete loss of steering control, significantly increasing the risk of a crash. Because this is a critical safety defect, owners are advised not to drive their vehicles until the repair has been completed.
