What is wrong
ON CERTAIN HEAVY DUTY CLASS 8 FRONT DISCHARGE CONCRETE TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH HOLLAND SUSPENSION, THE SUSPENSION HAS TRANSVERSE BEAM CASTINGS THAT MAY FRACTURE UNDER NORMAL LOADS. IF A CASTING BREAKS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELING ON A ROADWAY, THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR PIECES OF THE CASTING TO BECOME PROJECTILES AND THE SUSPENSION'S TRANSVERSE BEAM MAY DROP DOWN LOW ENOUGH TO CONTACT THE ROAD SURFACE.
What can happen
THIS COULD CAUSE SPARKS THAT COULD POTENTIALLY IGNITE AND CAUSE A FIRE.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
HOLLAND, IN CONJUNCTION WITH INDIANA PHOENIX, WILL INSPECT AND REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE TRANSVERSE BEAM ASSEMBLIES FREE OF CHARGE. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT HOLLAND USA AT 1-616-396-6501 OR INDIANA PHOENIX AT 260-897-4397.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
