Volvo Trucks North America "Volvo" is recalling certain 2015-2017 VHD trucks. The Gross Axle Weight Rating "GAWR" for the pusher or tag axle may be incorrect on the certification label. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
If the GAWR information is incorrect, the operator may overload the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
