What NHTSA recorded

On certain dual steer trucks, the 18" steering wheels were not assembled correctly. The horns either worked intermittently or not at all.

Possible consequence

This condition could prevent a driver from warning another vehicle or bystander of their presence, which could cause a vehicle crash or injury to bystanders.

Remedy

Dealers will remove and reassemble the contact plate position or roller position, if necessary. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact autocar at 1-877-973-3486.
