Defect: 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 booma s insulation.
Consequence: Reduced insulation can conduct electricity to the operator or others touching the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury and death.
Remedy: Altec will provide instructions to owners on how to inspect their vehicles for the check valve. Altec service will install the check valve as necessary, free of charge. 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.

Notes on this record
Complaints from the API and bulk file are merged and deduplicated by ODI number; the API alone misses records.
System and subsystem counts are numbers of distinct complaints, recalls or communications that name them. One record can name several systems, so shares across systems can add to more than 100 percent; a single share never exceeds 100 percent.
Recalls are counted once per campaign, investigations once per action and manufacturer communications once per NHTSA id, even when NHTSA lists several model names for the same record.
A sales denominator is a calendar-year proxy, not the population of vehicles still in use. Rates are copied from verified pipeline output.
NHTSA's complaints API and bulk file list no complaint for this make, model and model year in this data build.
