What are the defects?
The front axle knuckle may crack due to the high number of high angle turns under axle combined loading (braking and steering) that occur during waste collection. This may result in a loss of steering control.
What are the hazards?
A loss of steering control could increase the risk of an accident causing injury or death to vehicle occupants and/or other road users.
What should consumers do?
Note: Owners who have had their vehicle inspected and rectified under campaign number P54 must once gain contact with their authorised IVECO workshop or a dealer to have the necessary work carried out, free of charge.
