2022-2023 Altec AA55, AM55, AN46, and AN55 Recalled for Missing Check Valve

Agency Publication Date: December 23, 2025

Summary

Altec Industries, Inc. is recalling 18 vehicles, specifically 2022-2023 AA55 and 2023 AM55, AN46, and AN55 models. A check valve designed to retain oil in the hydraulic boom hoses may be missing, which can cause a vacuum to form and reduce the upper boom's electrical insulation. Altec will provide inspection instructions to owners and perform free repairs to install the valve where necessary.

Risk

Reduced boom insulation can allow the vehicle to conduct electricity to the operator or anyone else touching the vehicle. This creates a significant danger of electric shock, potentially leading to serious injury or death.
