Altec Industries, Inc. is recalling 134 units of its 2025 AC Series Cranes and DT Series Digger Derricks. These vehicles were manufactured without a critical wiring harness designed to protect the chassis lighting circuit from overloading. Without this harness, the body lighting or trailer lights can lose power suddenly, which can make the vehicle difficult to see or signal intentions to other drivers. Altec is providing a free repair kit to owners to resolve this safety issue.
A loss of body or trailer lighting reduces the vehicle's visibility to other motorists and prevents the use of signal lights, significantly increasing the risk of a crash. No incidents or injuries have been reported at this time.
