What's wrong?
The rear leaf spring assembly on 2016-2020 Mitsubishi Fuso FEC52, FEC72, and FEC92 trucks is a stack of curved steel spring leaves mounted at the rear axle. It helps carry the truck's load, keeps the axle located under the frame, and absorbs road impacts before they reach the chassis.
On affected trucks, a specific batch of Fleximol rear spring leaves was made with metal that lacked enough strength. As the truck carries weight and moves over uneven pavement, the weak spring leaf is stressed beyond what it was built to handle. The leaf spring can break, leaving the rear suspension with less support than intended.
There is no warning sign before failure. A rear spring leaf can break without a dashboard light, noise, or handling change that gives the driver advance notice.
