What is wrong
International Specialty Services, Inc (ISS) is recalling certain NAPA and Evercraft 800lb. low profile transmission jacks. These jacks include a saddle with a tilt angle adjustment bolt that may come loose and destabilize the saddle that is holding the transmission.
What can happen
If the tilt angle adjustment bolt loosens, the transmission could tip over increasing the risk of injury to the mechanic.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
ISS will notify owners, and dealers will replace the transmission jacks with ones that have a bolt with a castle nut and cotter pin, free of charge. The recall began on December 4, 2017. Owners may contact ISS customer service at 1-864-660-8307.

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.
