Spartan Fire, LLC is recalling 12 of its 2020-2023 Gladiator and 2023 MetroStar fire trucks because the fasteners on the front-drive steer axle can become loose. If these fasteners loosen, the axle assembly joints can completely separate, potentially causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle. Dealers will inspect and replace the pro-torque nut keeper on the axle assembly to resolve the issue for free.
The front steer axle may completely separate while the vehicle is in motion, leading to a total loss of steering control and significantly increasing the risk of a crash.
