2022–2023 Altec TG-124S recall: suspension
⚠️ What's wrong
Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain 2022-2023 TG-124S trailers. The axle U-bolts that secure the leaf springs may not be tightened properly, which can cause the U-bolts to loosen and detach from the axle and suspension.
💥 The risk
U-bolt detachment can result in a loss of vehicle handling and control, increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Altec will inspect and tighten the U-bolt nuts, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 4, 2023. Owners may contact Altec's customer service at 1-877-462-5832. Altec's number for this recall is CSN 3086.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
