Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

McNeilus Truck & Manufacturing, Inc. is recalling 431 Rear Loader vehicles from the model years 2010-2024. The license plate light on these trucks was installed in the incorrect location, which prevents it from properly illuminating the license plate as required by federal safety standards. Owners can take their vehicles to a dealer to have the light relocated and correctly installed at no cost.

Risk

An improperly lit license plate makes the vehicle less visible to other drivers at night or in low-light conditions, which increases the possibility of a rear-end collision or other crash.
