Defect. 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.

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.

Remedy. 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.

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.
