STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS
- The defect
- Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain 2014-2016 AT200A aerial devices. Cracks may develop in the legs of the mounting frame, which can cause the mounting frame side plate to break.
- What it can cause
- A broken side plate may result in pedestal and truck frame separation, increasing the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Altec will provide instructions for owners to inspect the mounting frame side plates for cracks. If cracks are found, Altec will repair the side plates as necessary, or provide a repair kit, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed in April 2025. Owners may contact Altec customer service at 1-877-462-5832. Altec's number for this recall is CSN 3215.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-888-275-9171), 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 103 vehicles this is a small campaign: 69% 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 2014 to 2016, so the oldest vehicles on it were 11 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Altec vehicles have been recalled over the structure 19 times before this, most recently in December 2023 as 23V824000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 12 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V562000 (structure), 24V015000 (electrical system), 23V216000 (structure), 22V613000 (equipment).
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 Altec Industries, Inc. with NHTSA on April 17, 2025 as campaign 25V250000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
