Oshkosh S-series Steering Gear: Steering recall
NHTSA campaign 24E041000 · 108 units potentially affected · filed May 31, 2024
What's wrong
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain Shepphard Steering Gears, with part number 3875726, sold as replacement parts for certain S-Series vehicles. The steering gears may have been assembled incorrectly, which can cause the gear to fracture.
Why it matters
A fractured steering gear shaft can cause a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Oshkosh will work with the supplier, R.H. Sheppard, to inspect and replace the steering gears as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on July 1, 2024. Owners may contact Oshkosh's customer service at 1-888-686-7278.
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.
