Defect. Altec Industries Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain 2010-2011 Effer 440 and 470 Knuckle Boom Cranes. The inner race rotation bearing fasteners for the crane turret may fail and the pedestal may crack if the fasteners are not replaced every two years.

Risk. If the rotation bearing fasteners fail or the pedestal cracks, the crane may not be stable, increasing the risk of injury.

Remedy. Altec will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the pedestal weld for cracks and replace the inner race rotation bearing fasteners, free of charge. The recall began on February 2, 2018. Owners may contact Altec customer service at 1-877-462-5832. Altec's number for this recall is CSN 674.

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.
