NHTSA Campaign 18V642000

EQUIPMENT

Issued by Heil Environmental · Reported Sep 17, 2018 · 5,704 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Heil Environmental (Heil) is recalling certain 2014-2016 Rear Loader, Side Loader, Front End Loader and Rolloff Body/Hoist garbage trucks. The hydraulic oil tank brackets may crack, causing the oil tank to detach from the chassis frame rails and leak hydraulic oil.

Consequence

Hydraulic oil leaking onto the roadway can increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Heil will notify owners, and dealers will replace both oil tank supporting brackets, free of charge. The recall began October 18, 2018. Owners may contact Heil customer service at 1-866-275-4345. Heil's number for this recall is BRACKET.
