ARVINMERITOR IS RECALLING CERTAIN MC16 AND MC16 TYPE TAG AXLE ASSEMBLIES THAT WERE SHIPPED TO MOTOR COACH INDUSTRIES BETWEEN OCTOBER 21, 2010, AND DECEMBER 6, 2010, FOR USE ON RECREATIONAL VEHICLES. BOLTS USED TO CONNECT THE AXLE HOUSING TO THE SPINDLE OF THE AXLE MAY NOT HAVE BEEN PROPERLY HEAT TREATED, RESULTING IN POTENTIALLY COMPROMISED HARDNESS AND STRENGTH THAT, IN TURN COULD LEAD TO REDUCED JOINT INTEGRITY.
What the owner should do?
If you read about a recall that you think may affect your car, you should make immediate contact with a dealer or workshop that’s been officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details.
If you wish to know more about eventual problems of a specific car (e.g. real mileage, potential traffic accidents damages, odometer rollback, repairs, etc.), then we suggest going to HPI-Check.
