EQUIPMENT
- The defect
- The Heil Co. (Heil) is recalling certain 2025-2026 side loader garbage trucks equipped with certain HH Technologies ReVamp high voltage cabinets, with part number 372-9585. Water may enter an improperly sealed high voltage cabinet and cause component failure or a short circuit.
- What it can cause
- Electrical component failure may lead to an unexpected vehicle shutdown, increasing the risk of a crash. In addition, an electrical short increases the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Heil will install a protective enclosure, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 28, 2026. Owners may contact Heil's customer service at 1-866-275-4345. Heil's number for this recall is PN-26-354 .
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 7 vehicles this is a small campaign: 94% 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 2025 to 2026, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Heil vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 4 times before this, most recently in August 2025 as 25V525000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 25V749000 (fuel system, other).
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 The Heil Co. with NHTSA on July 22, 2026 as campaign 26V474000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
