Oshkosh recall: Steering
What is wrong
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2020-2021 S-Series vehicles. A machining defect may cause pressure to build in the power steering pump and break the shaft seal, resulting in a loss of power steering assist.
What could happen
A loss of power steering assist increases the risk of a crash.
The fix
Owners will inspect and replace the power steering pump as necessary. Owners may perform this work themselves or reach out to one of our service centers to perform the inspection and repair work free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on December 15, 2021. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278.
