- What it can cause
- An engine shutdown increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Altec will replace the hydraulic tank heater relay, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 29, 2025. Owners may contact Altec customer service at 1-877-462-5832. Altec's number for this recall is CSN-3247. This recall is an expansion of NHTSA recall number 24V681.
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 19 vehicles this is a small campaign: 87% 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 2024 to 2025, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Altec vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 27 times before this, most recently in June 2025 as 25V400000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 15 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V541000 (forward collision avoidance), 26V409000 (equipment), 26V247000 (forward collision avoidance), 26V170000 (exterior lighting).
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 September 5, 2025 as campaign 25V581000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
