- The defect
- Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2019-2022 S-Series 2.0 Concrete Mixers. Incorrectly installed alternator electrical cable clamps may rub against the vehicle frame or hydraulic hose, possibly damaging the alternator cables.
- What it can cause
- Damaged alternator electrical cables can increase the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Oshkosh will provide instructions on how to inspect the wiring, reposition the clamps, and properly secure the cables. The repair can be performed by the owner or an Oshkosh service center, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 23, 2022. Owners may contact Oshkosh's customer service at 1-888-686-7278.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 1,316 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 61% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2019 to 2022, so the oldest vehicles on it were 3 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Oshkosh vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 2 times before this, most recently in June 2021 as 21V482000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 8 other recalls published here, the newest being: 24V917000 (vehicle speed control), 22V009000 (suspension), 22V008000 (fuel system, diesel), 21V851000 (steering).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Oshkosh Corporation with NHTSA on May 26, 2022 as campaign 22V378000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
