Hazard

The mounting bracket for the refrigeration unit condenser, installed between the wheelbase of large refrigerated trucks, has insufficient design consideration, which can cause cracks at fastened joints. Cracks may propagate due to running vibration and other factors, potentially causing the refrigeration unit condenser mounting bracket to fracture. In the worst case, the refrigeration unit condenser may detach, creating a hazard to other traffic.

大型冷凍車のホイールベース間に取付けた冷凍機コンデンサ用マウントブラケットにおいて、設計検討が不十分なため、締結部に亀裂が生じることがある。そのため、走行振動などで亀裂が進行し、冷凍機コンデンサ用マウントブラケットが破断し、最悪の場合、冷凍機コンデンサが脱落し、他の交通を妨げるおそれがある。

Remedy

All vehicles will have the refrigeration unit condenser mounting bracket replaced with a reinforced component. While the replacement part possesses sufficient strength, priority was given to urgency; further verification may result in a subsequent recall notice.
