Has your Altec been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Altec dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

Summary
The brake wire inside the trailer brake wiring plug was connected to the wrong terminal and, therefore, not properly connected to the switch in the truck cab which controls the trailer brakes.
Consequence
The trailer brakes may be inoperable or could inadvertently be applied when the truck chassis lights are switched on, increasing the risk of a vehicle accident.
Remedy
The trailer brake wiring will be inspected and corrected if necessary. Owners can perform this inspection and replace or have a dealer do the necessary corrections if they so desire.
