Meritor, Inc. is recalling approximately 65 front drive steer axles, models MFS and FF, because the fasteners can loosen and cause the axle assembly to fall apart. This defect affects specific part numbers MFS20133ANK66, MFS20133ANK86, and FF961LX296. Meritor is working with vehicle manufacturers to provide a free inspection and replacement of the pro-torque nut keeper to secure the assembly.
The steer axle fasteners can loosen and lead to a complete separation of the axle joints. If the axle assembly separates while the vehicle is in motion, the driver can lose control of the vehicle, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.
