Volvo trucks has announced that they are recalling certain model year 2014 VNL vehicles manufactured April 2, 2012 through May 3, 2013, and equipped with a Meritor RPL-20 driveline transmission. They stated that the driveline is too weak for this application and may fail.
Failure of the driveshaft can result in debris on the roadway and disabling of the truck, which can increase the risk of a crash. Volvo will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driveshaft free of charge. Owners may contact Volvo at 1-336-393-2000.
