The following safety recalls were issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA):
- Altec Industries is recalling certain 2023 DC and DM Digger Derricks. The turntable rotation gearbox may fail at high loads due to a defect in the brake flange casing. Gearbox failure may result in unexpected turntable rotation, increasing the risk of injury. NHTSA says potentially 44 units are affected by the recall.
- Autocar is recalling certain 2016-2023 ACX (Xpeditor) and 2021-2023 DC (Legend) vehicles. The park brake warning light may incorrectly illuminate during an air loss event. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 101, "Control and Displays." A park brake warning light that illuminates incorrectly increases the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 104 units are affected by the recall.
- Lion Electric Company is recalling certain 2024-2025 LionC School Buses. The anti-lock brake system (ABS) pneumatic valve connections and rear wheel speed sensors may be installed incorrectly. Incorrectly installed ABS valves and wheel speed sensors can cause a wheel lockup or loss of vehicle control during ABS braking, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially seven units are affected by the recall.
- Mack Trucks is recalling certain 2024 LR vehicles. The fasteners that connect the power steering assist cylinder to steering arm may be loose or missing. The power steering assist cylinder may separate from the steering arm, causing a loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 47 units are affected by the recall.
- Terex South Dakota is recalling certain 2021-2023 TL48 trucks. The bolts used to mount the aerial device to the sub-base may not be tightened properly, which could result in bolt failure, allowing the aerial device to fall. An aerial device that falls increases the risk of injury. NHTSA says potentially 17 units are affected by the recall.
