Hendrickson USA, L.L.C. "Hendrickson" is recalling certain COMPOSILITE EXS20 and SC20 Lift Axles. The bearing journals may not be fully seated in the steering knuckle assemblies, preventing the proper installation of the wheel end hub assemblies.
Incorrect installation can allow lubricant to leak, causing the axle spindles to loosen or fracture and increasing the risk of a crash.
Hendrickson will work with its affected manufacturers to help facilitate the inspection and replacement of the steering knuckle assemblies as necessary, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a schedule for recall notification. Owners may contact Hendrickson customer service at 1-630-773-9111. Hendrickson's number for this recall is HAUX 2023-01.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
