The short version

The king pin nut may not have been installed or properly tightened during axle assembly.
If the king pin is missing or not tightened properly, the knuckle may separate from the axle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Volvo Trucks will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicle to make sure that the king pin nut is installed and that it properly tightened, free of charge.
