What was wrong

Defect

Meritor, Inc. (Meritor) is recalling certain Front Non-Drive Axles, model numbers FH941, FH945, and MFS12155 manufactured July 25, 2014, to December 5, 2014. The affected axles have castellated nuts on the tie rod that may not be properly torqued.

Risk

If the castellated nuts are not properly torqued, the tie rod may not be adequately secured, resulting in a loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Meritor will notify the affected vehicle manufacturers who will notify the vehicle owners, and their dealers will inspect the torque on the tie rod end nuts, replacing the damaged components, as necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on March 23, 2015. Owners may contact Meritor customer service at 1-866-668-7221. Meritor's number for this recall is C15AB.
