What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Mitsubishi Fuso Truck of America, Inc. (MFTA) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Fuso FEC9T gas trucks. The front leaf spring rear-lower shackle bolts may be loose.

The risk

Loose bolts can detach and become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Dealers will inspect and tighten the bolts, and replace any damaged shackles as necessary, free of charge. Owners may contact MFTA customer service at 1-877-711-0707.

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.nhtsa.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.
