Newest recall campaigns

The newest 5 of 25.

  1. 98V255000Received . 95,013 units.

    Suspension / Front / Springs / Air Suspension / Lines and Fittings

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Vehicle description: class 8 heavy duty trucks. The air suspension control valve supply line was not plumbed through an air pressure protection valve. In the event of a failure, there would be loss of air pressure in the 'b' system air reservoir that supplies air pressure for the front steer axle brakes.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    This condition would result in increased stopping distances.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Dealers will install the necessary air pressure protection valve.

    Report filed by VOLVO TRUCKS NORTH AMERICA INC. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: . The campaign has 178 make, model and year entries.

  2. 96V124001Received . 214 units.

    Suspension

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    The equalizing beam shaft of the tandem axle suspension were manufactured from as-rolled sae4140 steel rather than the specified annealed sae4140. These shafts can fracture inside the beam at the toe of the weld.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    Vehicles are subject to vehicle tilt and possible rollover in the event that both equalizing beams, on the same side of the vehicle, experience a simultaneous shaft failure. Affected suspensions can also drop and contact the road surface generating sparks which could ignite flammable material.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Owner notification is being conducted by neway anchorlok. Dealers will inspect and replace all suspension suspension beams with suspension beams containing appropriate shafts.

    Report filed by VOLVO TRUCKS NORTH AMERICA INC. The campaign has 4 make, model and year entries.

  3. 96V095000Received . 771 units.

    Service Brakes, Air

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    The traction solenoid exhaust can be obstructed due to inadequate drainage and a build-up of road contamination between the mounting bracket and the solenoid housing. The obstructed exhaust prevents the relay valve control air pressure from venting after a differential braking traction event.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    This condition would keep the rear axle service brakes applied without any brake pedal movement by the driver increasing the risk of a vehicle accident.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Dealers will remove the suspect valve and install a new valve that has a modified solenoid housing which will allow for sufficient drainage and a new valve mounting bracket with increased height to reduce entry of contamination.

    Report filed by VOLVO TRUCKS NORTH AMERICA INC. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: . The campaign has 42 make, model and year entries.

  4. 96V032000Received . 6,034 units.

    Suspension / Rear / Springs / Air Suspension System

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    The rear suspension axle retention plate can break under normal use, affecting axle alignment.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    This condition could result in loss of rear axle stability affecting vehicle directional control and increasing the potential for a vehicle crash.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Dealers will remove and replace the axle retention clip plates on affected vehicles.

    Report filed by VOLVO TRUCKS NORTH AMERICA INC. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: . The campaign has 18 make, model and year entries.

  5. 95V233000Received . 120 units.

    Suspension

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    The tilt cab, when raised to its fullest up position, can cause the steering shaft to bind against the steering gear.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If the contact is severe enough, the steering gear input shaft could crack resulting in potential failure followed by loss of steering control and possible vehicle crash.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Dealers will replace the steering slip shaft and the steering gear.

    Report filed by VOLVO GM HEAVY TRUCK CORP. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: . The campaign has 2 make, model and year entries.
