What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2020-2021 S-Series vehicles. A machining defect may cause pressure to build in the power steering pump and break the shaft seal, resulting in a loss of power steering assist.

The risk

A loss of power steering assist increases the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Owners will inspect and replace the power steering pump as necessary. Owners may perform this work themselves or reach out to one of our service centers to perform the inspection and repair work free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on December 15, 2021. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278.

Notes

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.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
