Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (vehicle) where the defect increases the risk of a crash, but no injuries or fatalities have been reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

McNeilus Truck & Manufacturing, Inc. is recalling certain 2020 Bridgemaster V Mixer vehicles. The recall addresses a defect where the information plate does not list the position at which the pusher axles should be operated.

If the correct pusher axle position is not listed, the operator may not know how to position the axle while the vehicle is not carrying a load. This lack of information increases the risk of a crash.

McNeilus will notify owners and provide a new information plate free of charge. The recall began on December 21, 2020. Owners may contact McNeilus customer service at 1-888-686-7278 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
