Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Meritor, Inc. is recalling 37 front drive steer axles, specifically models MX23810 and MX24810. The fasteners on these steer axles may not have been tightened correctly during manufacturing, which can cause them to loosen over time. If these fasteners loosen completely, the axle assembly joints could separate while the vehicle is in operation. Meritor will coordinate with affected manufacturers to replace and tighten these fasteners for free.

Risk

The separation of the steer axle assembly can lead to a complete loss of vehicle control. This significantly increases the risk of a crash for the driver and others on the road.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if your vehicle is equipped with Meritor front drive steer axle models MX23810 or MX24810.
  2. Check your records or examine the axle for part numbers MX23810DANC12-538 or MX24810DANC3-614.
  3. If you identify an affected axle, contact Meritor customer service at 1-866-668-7221 to arrange for a free inspection and repair. Reference Meritor recall number C23AB.
