Volvo VNL and VNR trucks can lose a hubcap

NHTSA campaign 21V417000 · Reported 2021-06-02 · Volvo Trucks North America

medium How serious is it? About this label

The main danger is to vehicles around you rather than to the truck itself, and the notice does not tell owners to park it, so you can keep driving while you arrange the free repair.

What's wrong, in plain English

A spring inside the hubcap presses against it in a way that can let the hubcap work loose and fly off the wheel while the truck is moving. A hubcap that comes off becomes a loose object in the road, which other drivers can hit or swerve to avoid. The repair is simple: the dealer takes the hubcap off and does not put it back, at no cost to you. The recall covers certain 2021-2022 Volvo VAH, VDH, VNL and VNR trucks.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your truck is included. 2. Contact a Volvo Trucks dealer or Volvo Trucks customer service at 1-800-528-6586 (recall RVXX 2102) to have the hubcaps removed free of charge. 3. During pre-trip checks, look at the hubcaps and report any that appear loose.
