Known issues on the 1997 W5500 Tiltmaster. One recall is on federal record: the front axle brake hoses could be damaged while the axle assembly was transported with the hoses attached, so dealers inspected both front hoses and replaced any damaged hose (campaign 97V087002). NHTSA lists no owner complaints. The manual's brake hose inspection and replacement procedures and fitting torque values cover this repair.
