Fccc recall: Power train
What is wrong
Meritor, Inc. is recalling certain wheel ends for drive axles with ConMet PreSet Plus Hubs manufactured August 2012 and December 2012. Due to a missing locking snap ring on the axle hub, the rear wheels may separate from the vehicle.
What could happen
Wheel separation from the vehicle increases the risk of a crash.

Meritor will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the affected wheel ends for the lock ring, installing them as needed, free of charge. The safety recall began in June 2014. Owners may contact Meritor at 1-866-668-7221. Meritor's number for this recall is C14AA.
