The problem
Navistar is recalling certain model year 2013 International ProStar commercial trucks, manufactured from January 24, 2012, through January 2, 2013, with feature codes 29AEB and 29AEC (Preset Plus hubs). The axle bearing retaining nut lock snap ring may have not been installed or may have been installed incorrectly which may result in the retainer nut working loose and possibly separating the wheel hub from the axle.
The risk
Separation of a wheel hub from an axle may increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace any missing axle bearing retainer nut lock snap rings, free of charge. The safety recall began on April 24, 2013. Owners may contact Navistar at 1-800-448-7825.
