Altec Industries, Inc. is recalling approximately 3,425 heavy-duty vehicles, including aerial devices, diggers, crane models, and service trucks from the 2023-2024 model years built on Freightliner M2 Plus chassis. The lighting wire harness in these vehicles may become overloaded, which can prevent the exterior lights from turning on. Owners can have their vehicles repaired by an authorized dealer who will rework the wiring and update the trailer module at no cost.
If the exterior lights fail to illuminate, the vehicle becomes significantly less visible to other drivers, especially at night or in poor weather conditions, which increases the risk of a crash.
Free rework of the lighting wire harness and trailer module update.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
