What's wrong?
The fender tube on the 2022 Mcneilus Bridgemaster is the welded support that holds the fender over the tag axle tire. The tag axle is the rear load-carrying axle that helps support the mixer truck when it is loaded. The fender and tube need enough clearance so the tire can move without striking the hardware.
On recalled trucks, the wrong size fender and fender tube were installed on the tag axle. That leaves too little space between the tire and the fender hardware. During operation, the tire can contact the hardware, and that contact can loosen or detach the fender or fender tube from the truck.
There is no warning sign before failure. A driver or fleet mechanic should treat any visible tire rub, loose fender hardware, or unusual noise near the tag axle as a reason to stop and inspect the truck before returning it to service.

What's the safety risk?
A detached fender or fender tube can fall from the tag axle and create a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash for nearby traffic. If your VIN is included, schedule the repair soon and avoid operating the truck with missing or detached tag axle fender parts. Repair is free at any franchised Mcneilus dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2022 Mcneilus Bridgemaster is included in this recall.
- Contact your nearest franchised Mcneilus dealer to schedule the free fender and fender-tube replacement that restores tire clearance at the tag axle.
- Bring the recall notice if Mcneilus mailed one. If not, reference recall number 22V376 when you call.
- Drive cautiously until the repair, and stop using the truck if you hear tire contact or see loose fender hardware.
What happens at the repair
At the service center, a Mcneilus technician replaces the fenders and fender tubes on the tag axle so the tire has proper clearance from the fender hardware. Parts and labor are covered under the recall. Mcneilus also gives customers instructions for installing the corrected fenders and fender tubes. If you buy the parts and complete the repair through that route, file the parts and labor reimbursement claim through the normal warranty process. A Mcneilus service center can also perform the repair free of charge.
