McNeilus Truck & Manufacturing, Inc. is recalling approximately 4,300 Zero Radius refuse trucks from model years 2015-2024 because the side loader arm may not be properly secured. This defect can cause the loader arm to unexpectedly move or extend outward while the vehicle is being driven on the road. To address this safety issue, McNeilus will provide new latch assemblies and a software update to affected vehicles free of charge.
If the side loader arm unexpectedly extends out from the vehicle body while driving, it can strike other vehicles, pedestrians, or objects, significantly increasing the risk of a crash and potential injury.
