What was wrong

Defect

Meritor, Inc. (Meritor) is recalling certain front drive steer axles, models MFS and FF, with part numbers MFS20133ANK66, MFS20133ANK86, and FF961LX296. The front-drive steer axle fasteners may loosen, resulting in a complete separation of the axle assembly joints.

Risk

Steer axle assembly separation can result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Meritor will work with the affected manufacturers to inspect and replace the pro-torque nut keeper on the steer axle assembly, free of charge. Owners may contact Meritor customer service at 1-866-668-7221.
