STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS
A cable step that fails during use increases the risk of injury.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
A cable step that fails during use increases the risk of injury.
An uncontrolled load falling increases the risk of injury to personnel or others nearby.
An auger extension bar that detaches while the digger drive unit is deployed, can increase the risk of injury to nearby personnel.
A missing weld on the rear pole rack can lead to a crack that could cause the pole and rack to drop in height, increasing the risk of an injury.
A nonfunctional overload protection system may result in the operator unknowingly overloading the system, increasing the risk of injury.
Shear plate failure can result in the separation of the subbase and truck frame, increasing the risk of injury.
Two 2018 ALTEC DIGGER DERRICKs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
