What's wrong
Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain 2017-2020 DT65-H and DT65-E vehicles. The location of the capacity placard plate could cause a pinch point between the boom and the placard plate.
The risk
If the operator's hand is resting on the plate it could be pinched as the boom is raised, increasing the risk of an injury.
The fix
Altec will notify owners, and owners will receive instructions to relocate the placard plate from the left-hand control pod to the right-hand control pod, free of charge. The recall began on April 16, 2021. Owners may contact Altec customer service at 1-877-462-5832. Altec's number for this recall is CSN 800.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
