The problem

The risk
A fractured rear output shaft may cause the shaft or interaxle driveline to detach from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
The fix
Oshkosh will notify owners, and owners will be instructed to inspect the output shaft, and if necessary, order a new one and replace it, free of charge. The recall began on March 31, 2021. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278.
