What is wrong

Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Business Class M2 and 2020 108SD vehicles equipped with Meritor MX 120 EVO Front Drive Steer axles. The axles may have insufficient lubrication, which may result in damage to the wheel end bearings.

What can happen

If the bearings are damaged, the wheel may separate and cause a sudden loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of crash.

The remedy

DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the wheel end components, as necessary, free of charge. DTNA issued owners an interim notification on August 7, 2019. The recall began September 10, 2019. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL-817.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
