ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- The defect
- Mickey Truck Bodies, Inc. is recalling certain 2020-2022 Freightliner M2, 2020-2023 Isuzu NQR, 2021-2023 Chevrolet 5500 HD, Hino L6, 2021 Chevrolet 4500, Mack MD, 2022 Chevrolet LCF, and Isuzu FTR vehicles. The 12-Volt wire harness on the truck refrigeration unit (TRU) may be exposed and missing heat shrink, which can cause electrical arcing.
- What it can cause
- Electrical arcing can increase the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and secure/insulate exposed wires of the TRU, add a connector, and remove a fuse, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 16, 2024. Owners may contact Mickey Truck Bodies customer service at 1-336-882-6806.
- 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 37 vehicles this is a small campaign: 81% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2020 to 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were 4 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
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.
