1996 Freightliner Truck Recall

NOTE: VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH EATON DRIVE AXLES AND AXILOK SPINDLE NUTS. THE KEYWAY SLOT ON THE DRIVE AXLE HOUSING MAY NOT BE LONG ENOUGH TO ACCOMMODATE THE LOCKING TAB FOR THE AXILOK WHEEL BEARING NUT LOCKING MECHANISM. THIS COULD CAUSE THE WHEEL BEARING TO LOOSEN THEREBY ALLOWING THE WHEEL TO SEPARATE FROM THE AXLE. THIS COULD CREATE A HAZARD FOR OTHER ROAD USERS. CORRECTION: AXLE HOUSINGS WILL BE INSPECTED AND WHERE REQUIRED, AXILOK NUTS WILL BE REPLACED WITH A CONVENTIONAL WHEEL NUT HARDWARE SYSTEM.
