SAF-Holland is recalling certain ULX40 trailer axles, part number 1004300026950. The wheel end hubs on these axles may have insufficient lubrication levels, which could cause the hub bearings to fail.
Hub bearing failure could cause the wheel hub assembly to detach, causing a loss of stability and control, and create a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
SAF-Holland will provide instructions to owners, to inspect the wheel hubs and add the proper amount of lubricant as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 25, 2022. Owners may contact SAF-Holland customer service at 1-888-396-6501. SAF-Holland's number for this recall is P047.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
