2022–2023 Altec AA55 & 2023 Altec AM55 + 2 more recall: equipment
⚠️ What's wrong
Altec Industries, Inc.(Altec) is recalling certain 2022-2023 AA55, 2023 AM55, AN46, and AN55 vehicles. A check valve that retains oil in the boom hoses may not have been installed, allowing a vacuum to form and reducing the upper boom’s insulation.
💥 The risk
Reduced insulation can conduct electricity to the operator or others touching the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury and death.
🔧 The fix

Owner notification letters were mailed February 10, 2026. Owners may contact Altec customer service at 1-877-462-5832. Altec's number for this recall is CSN 3272.
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.)
