2008 Seagrave Marauder II recall: powertrain & transmission
⚠️ What's wrong
Seagrave recalled 1 my 2008 Marauder II fire truck equipped with arvinmeritor axle assemblies with suspect wheel end studs. The wheel end studs were improperly tempered, potentially rendering them brittle and susceptible to fracture. If one wheel stud fractures, the remaining wheel studs are required to carry more load. If left in this condition, the remaining wheel studs may also fracture even if they are properly manufactured.
💥 The risk
Fractured wheel studs could result in a vehicle crash.
🔧 The fix
This vehicle has been inspected and did not need repair.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
