NHTSA campaign 23V029000 · 128 units potentially affected · filed Jan 26, 2023
What's wrong
Kalmar Solutions, LLC (Kalmar) is recalling certain 2022 Ottawa T2 vehicles. When extended, the cab tilt hydraulic cylinder that is used to raise and lower the cab for maintenance and inspection could come apart, allowing the entire cab to fall forward.
Why it matters
A cab that falls forward increases the risk of injury to anyone standing in front of the cab.
The fix
Dealers will replace the cab tilt cylinder, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 20, 2023. Owners may contact Kalmar customer service at 1-785-229-6327.
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.
