The problem

Eaton Corporation (Eaton) is recalling certain Eaton Fuller 365mm clutches manufactured May 26, 2014, to June 17, 2014. Due to an incorrect clutch-release bearing component, the affected clutches may not disengage as needed.

The risk

If the driver is not able to disengage the clutch, unintended vehicle motion or extended stopping distances may occur, increasing the risk of crash.

What to do

Eaton will notify the affected vehicle manufacturers and owners, and Eaton personnel will inspect and replace the clutches, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began in November 2014. Owners may contact Eaton customer service at 1-800-386-1911.
