Defect description

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.

Safety 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.

Manufacturer remedy

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.
