What is wrong

Autocar, LLC (Autocar) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Xpeditor vehicles manufactured March 04, 2016, through April 21, 2016. The tab lock washers on the rear axle wheel ends may not have been properly bent over the outer spindle nut during assembly.

What can happen

If the spindle nuts loosen, the wheel assembly may separate from the rear axle, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Autocar will notify owners and dealers will inspect the tab lock washers and remedy tabs where needed, free of charge. The recall began on June 30, 2016. Owners may contact Autocar's customer service at 1-765-489-5499. Autocar's number for this recall is ACX-1602.
