The hazard
Issue: On certain vehicles, the accessory functions may draw too much power from the ignition circuit. As a result, the circuit could be overloaded and the fuse could blow. If this happens, there would be a loss of engine power. Note: This recall only affects certain vehicles built on a Freightliner Business Class M2 chassis. Safety Risk: A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: To reduce the safety risk, Altec recommends using a maximum of five accessory functions at a time until the recall repairs are completed. Altec will notify owners by mail and advise you to contact Altec Service to rewire the accessory circuit.
