The problem
McNeilus Truck & Manufacturing, Inc. (McNeilus) is recalling certain model year 2016 Bridgemaster V Concrete Mixers manufactured April 8, 2016, through May 13, 2016. The affected vehicles have bridge axle tube sleeves that may crack along the tube sleeve welds.
The risk
If one tube sleeve cracks, vehicle handling may be affected. If both tube sleeves crack, the bridge axle may detach from the vehicle. Either condition increases the risk of a crash.
What to do
The owners have been notified and all the affected vehicles have had the bridge axles replaced, free of charge. Therefore, an owner notification letter will not be issued for this campaign. The recall began on May 24, 2016. Owners may contact McNeilus customer service at 1-507-374-6321. McNeilus' number for this recall is Hendrickson TB-H801.
