Defect. Altec Industries Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain 2006-2020 AH150 and AH125S Articulating Non-Overcenter Aerial Devices. The incorrect counterbalance valve may have been installed in the main lift cylinder. As a result, at certain boom positions the counterbalance valve will open due to the pressure in the cylinder exceeding the setting.

Risk. If one of the hoses between the cylinder and the external counterbalance valve manifold were to fail to hold pressure, the boom could unexpectedly lower, increasing the risk of an injury.

Remedy. Altec will notify owners, and dealers will install the correct counterbalance valve if necessary, free of charge. The recall began January 11, 2021. Owners may contact Altec customer service at 1-877-462-5832. Altec's number for this recall is CSN 784.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
