What's wrong?
The front-drive steer axle on the 2022 Terex Advance Front Discharge Mixer carries the front of the truck and connects the steering and drive hardware at the front wheels. Its fasteners clamp the axle assembly joints together so those parts stay aligned while the mixer steers, accelerates, brakes, and turns.
On affected mixers, the Meritor MX-23-810 front axle fasteners were not tightened enough during assembly. With clamp force too low, vibration and road loads can loosen the joints further. If a joint separates, the axle assembly loses the connection it needs to hold its parts together.
There is no warning sign before failure. Do not wait for noise, looseness, or steering feel to confirm the problem, because the recall filing does not identify an owner-noticeable symptom before the axle joint comes apart.

A matching year and model does not confirm inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific truck.
What's the safety risk?
A steer axle assembly separation can cause loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash. The filing gives no owner warning sign before separation, so take steering changes or unusual handling seriously and arrange repair guidance soon. Repair will be free at any franchised Terex Advance dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2022 Terex Advance Front Discharge Mixer is included in this recall.
- Contact Terex Advance customer service at 1-800-678-5961 for the repair location and scheduling instructions.
- Schedule the free Meritor axle-joint inspection and repair that fixes the loose front-drive steer axle fasteners.
- Bring the owner notice Terex Advance mailed on May 18, 2023. If you do not have it, reference recall number 23V148 when you call.
- Drive cautiously until the repair is complete, and stop using the mixer if steering feels loose or abnormal.
What happens at the repair
Because the remedy status is not listed as open, confirm availability before scheduling service. Once the dealer repair opens, a Terex Advance technician will inspect the front drive steer axle assembly joints and repair the axle joint fasteners that were not tightened enough. The recall repair is free, including parts and labor. If the vehicle has prior axle work paperwork, keep it for the service desk, but this source does not state a reimbursement program.
