Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Kalmar Solutions is recalling 2 vehicles, specifically the 2023 Ottawa T2, because the steering gear assemblies may have been built incorrectly. The steering mechanism might have been missing essential recirculating balls during assembly, which can lead to a sudden loss of steering control. This mechanical failure can make the vehicle difficult or impossible to steer, significantly increasing the risk of an accident.

Risk

A missing component within the steering gear assembly can cause the steering system to fail while the vehicle is in motion. This loss of control prevents the driver from properly directing the vehicle, which creates a high risk of a collision or crash.

  1. Check your vehicle records to confirm if you own a 2023 Ottawa T2 truck.
  2. Contact Kalmar customer service at 1-785-229-6327 to confirm if your specific vehicle is one of the two affected units.
  3. If your vehicle is affected, schedule a free appointment with an authorized dealer to have the defective steering gear replaced at no cost to you.
