I read the other day that Pierce MFG is recalling 135 trucks after reports of the wheels falling off while going down the road.  Anyone know if thats true or false?

True, it's for 2010 and 2011 Arrow XT's with TAK-4 IFS.

 

Incidents of wheels falling off have occurred several times across the US, including twice in Baltimore City.

Nor do they upkeep the roadways like they once did.
