Penske recalls MAN models over steering shaft issue

Nearly 100 MAN trucks have been recalled around Australia due to the manufacturing defect

Penske Australia has issued a recall for nearly 100 units of popular MAN truck models due to a manufacturing issue with the steering shaft.

The recall involves 85 units of the MAN TGM 2-axle, TG3 3-axle and TG 4-axle models between 2023 and 2024, including all variants within the models.

Due to a manufacturing defect, the steering shaft pinch bolt on these trucks may have been incorrectly installed, potentially leading to a loss of steering control.
