What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain 2021-2024 JEMS S and JEMS SE vehicles. Inadequate clearance between the A/C hoses and the engine exhaust manifold may result in the hoses overheating.

The risk

A/C hoses that overheat can increase the risk of a fire.

The remedy

Altec will install a remedy kit to secure the hose routing farther away from the exhaust manifold, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 23, 2024. Owners may contact Altec customer service at 1-877-462-5832. Altec's number for this recall is CSN-3166.

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.
