The problem
ON CERTAIN CONCRETE MIXERS EQUIPPED WITH HENDRICKSON BRIDGE AXLES, CRACKS HAVE BEEN FOUND IN THE AXLE SEAT AND KINGPIN HUB PORTIONS.
Risk
IF THE CRACKS SHOULD PROPAGATE WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN ROAD USE, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT DEBRIS FROM THE AXLE OR ADJACENT VEHICLES PARTS COULD BE DEPOSITED IN THE ROADWAY, INCREASING THE RISK OF DAMAGE TO A FOLLOWING VEHICLE OR A CRASH.
What owners should do
OSHKOSH IS WORKING WITH HENDRICKSON TO REPLACE THE BRIDGE AXLES ON THESE VEHICLES (PLEASE SEE 07E040). THE RECALL BEGAN ON JULY 2, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HENDRICKSON AT 1-800-660-2843.
