SUSPENSION:REAR:AXLE:NON-POWERED AXLE ASSEMBLY

Issued by Industrial Axle Company · Reported May 15, 2015 · 1,616 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Industrial Axle Company (IAC) is recalling certain ALKO AXIS Axles, model numbers H52, QF48, QF52, QF60, QF70, D52, D60, T52, and T60, part number 363239.9, manufactured March 9, 2015, to April 17, 2015. The affected axle hubs have wheel mounting studs that may fail.

Consequence

If the wheel studs break while the trailer is being used, wheel separation may occur, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

Remedy

IAC will notify the vehicle manufacturers that purchased the affected hubs and dealers for those manufacturers will notify the trailer owners. The axle hubs and drums will be inspected, and depending on the date of production, the hub and drum will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on May 8, 2015. Owners may contact IAC customer service at 1-800-400-2164 or [email protected].
