NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published
The defect
Morgan Olson is recalling certain model year 2009 through 2011 walk-in trucks due to failure to conform to various Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS). These vehicles may fail to comply with one or more of the following: FMVSS No. 101, "Controls and Displays;" FMVSS No. 103, "Windshield Defrosting and Defogging Systems;" FMVSS No. 104, "Windshield Wiping and Washing Systems;" FMVSS No. 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment;" FMVSS No. 206, "Door Locks and Door Retention Components;" and 49 CFR Part 567 "Certification."
The risk
Failure of the vehicles to meet one or more required safety standards may increase the risk of a crash or personal injury.
The remedy
The only owner of the affected vehicles has been notified and Morgan Olson is working with the owner to bring the vehicles into compliance. Therefore, a owner notification letter will not be issued for this campaign. Any repairs will be made free of charge.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
