Terex Advance recall: Power train
What is wrong

The affected axles may have hex nuts on the flange yoke that may not have been properly tightened.
What could happen
If the hex nuts are not tightened to specification, the driveshaft may disconnect from the drive axle, resulting in a loss of propulsion and increasing the risk of a crash.

Terex will notify owners and provide instructions to properly torque the bolts. The recall began on July 15, 2016. Owners may contact Terex customer service at 1-800-433-6691.
