DEFECT #1 - SUSPENSION:FRONT:WHEEL BEARING


Posted on: 2007-07-26
Description
On certain trailers built to u.s.  Tank-automotive and armaments command specifications, the wheel bearing spindle nuts installed on the wheel and axle assemblies may be over-torqued.

Consequence
Excessive tightening of the spindle nut can cause overheating of the bearings which may result in wheel bearing failure causing the wheel assembly to break free from the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action
The manufacturer has not provided a remedy or owner notification schedule for this campaign.  Owners may contact silver eagle at 1-503-335-2101.
