NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

The risk

A broken side plate may result in pedestal and truck frame separation, increasing the risk of injury.

The remedy

Altec will repair the side plates as necessary, or provide a repair kit, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 13, 2022. Owners may contact Altec customer service at 1-877-462-5832. Altec's number for this recall is CSN 840.

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.
