Integral hub and bearing assembly investigation # PE02095
The companies involved in this matter are: skf (hub mfr), arvinmeritor (front axle mfr), and volvo (manufacturer of class viii tractor/trucks).Skf identified manufacturing defects for specific build dates on front axle hub and bearings (wheel bearings) supplied to arvinmeritor.As a result, arvinmeritor notified volvo of axles supplied with possible defective front hub assemblies.As a result of that notification, 433 trucks are being recalled by volvo for defective front axle wheel bearings which may fail in such a way that a wheel separation or wheel bearing fire occurs.See attached summary report for additional details.

Metal strap holding up air tank reservoir is constantly breaking, broke on my truck few years ago while driving on the hwy, is breaking up on all my trucks with above design. Myself getting tired with defective design and part, i have replaced metal strap with a tie down ratchet rated 5000lbs. Now i'm getting tickets from dot for doing so and solving the problem the right way. Mention above volvo part number is 8073380. This is a serious design issue involving all volvo trucks 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 if not more. Losing air tanks while traveling 65 mh on the hwy and being 80000 lbs is a real safety hazard for all being on the road. *tr
