Spicer Ultimate Dana 60 Axle: Power Train recall

NHTSA campaign 23E035000 · 11 units potentially affected · filed Apr 24, 2023

What's wrong

Dana Incorporated (Dana) is recalling certain Spicer Ultimate Dana 60 Bracketless Crate Axles sold for Jeep Wrangler vehicles. The axel suspension bracket may prevent sufficient lubrication from reaching the pinion tail bearings.

Why it matters

Insufficient lubrication may cause the pinion tail bearing to seize, preventing the axle from rotating and increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dana will replace the axles, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 30, 2023. Owners may contact Dana customer service at 1-419-887-3000.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
