2021–2023 Mcneilus Zero Radius: Equipment recall
NHTSA campaign 22V716000 · 1,140 units potentially affected · filed Sep 23, 2022
What's wrong
McNeilus Truck & Manufacturing, Inc. (McNeilus) is recalling certain 2021-2023 Zero Radius trucks. The ejector welds may fail, causing pressure and force to be placed on the hydraulic cylinder, which can cause it to penetrate through the side of the truck body.
Why it matters
A hydraulic cylinder that penetrates the side of a truck body increases the risk of injury.
The fix
McNeilus will either send service representatives to repair affected vehicles or ship parts to customers, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on November 21, 2022. Owners may contact McNeilus' customer service at 1-888-686-7278.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
