What is wrong
Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain 1999-2022 L Series and LR Series aerial devices.

What can happen
Failure of the load-holding feature can result in unintended movement of the platform or load, increasing the risk of injury.

Recall repairs are free of charge.
Altec will inspect the units for a hydraulic hose and replace it with specified metallic tubing, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 11, 2023. Owners may contact Altec customer service 1-877-462-5832. Altec's number for this recall is CSN 3090.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
