Has your Caterpillar been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Caterpillar dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

Summary
Caterpillar Inc. (Caterpillar) is recalling all 2016 Navistar CT660S trucks equipped with certain Spicer D or E series steer axles. The castellated nut on the steer axles may not be properly torqued, allowing the tie rod to loosen.
Consequence
If the tie rod loosens, it may disconnect from the steering knuckle, causing a complete loss of steering and increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Caterpillar will notify owners, and dealers will tighten the castellated nut and tie rod, replacing them as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on December 08, 2017. Owners may contact Caterpillar customer service at 1-800-447-4986.
