NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published
The defect
Cummins, Inc. (Cummins) is recalling certain Meritor drivelines with model numbers RPL20, RPL25, RPL10, RPL35, RPL14, and 176MXL. The drivelines may be missing a snap ring in the slip yoke assembly, causing the bearing cup to separate from the driveline.
The risk
A driveline separation can cause a loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash. Detached components can become a road hazard for other vehicles, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will inspect and replace the driveline as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed November 20, 2026. Owners may contact Cummins customer service at 1-800-286-6467. Cummins number for this recall is AFT26001.
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.
