Defect. ST Engineering Hackney, Inc. (STE Hackney) is recalling certain 2011-2021 Kidron refrigerated truck bodies equipped with certain Carrier Transicold refrigeration units, including Supra models 950, 950MT, and 960. The centrifugal clutch may overheat under certain conditions, which can cause it to break apart.

Risk. Hot components from the clutch assembly may fall onto nearby flammable materials, such as leaves or other debris, increasing the risk of a fire.

Remedy. Dealers will inspect and replace the panels around the clutch as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed 21, 2023. Owners may contact STE Hackney customer service at 1-252-946-6521.

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.
