Defect. Pierce Manufacturing (Pierce) is recalling one 2019 Pierce Tanker vehicle built on a Daimler/Freightliner chassis equipped with a front Meritor MX 120EVO axle. The axle may have insufficient lubrication, which may result in damage to the wheel end bearings.

Risk. If the bearings are damaged, the wheel may separate and cause a sudden loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of crash.

Remedy. Pierce will notify the owner, and a dealer will inspect and replace the wheel end components, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began February 27, 2020. Owners may contact Pierce customer service at 1-888-974-3723.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
