Pierce Manufacturing axle may have insufficient lubrication, which may result in damage to the wheel end bearings.
The short version
Pierce Manufacturing reported a problem with the suspension front. Here is what owners need to know.
Pierce Manufacturing (Pierce) is recalling one 2019 Pierce Tanker vehicle built on a Daimler/Freightliner chassis equipped with a front Meritor MX 120EVO axle. The axle may have insufficient lubrication, which may result in damage to the wheel end bearings.
If the bearings are damaged, the wheel may separate and cause a sudden loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of crash.
Pierce will notify the owner, and a dealer will inspect and replace the wheel end components, as necessary, free of charge.
