This can cause a lack of proper support for the front bumper and the cab guard on the vehicle. Altec requires the bumper support brackets on the chassis to be inspected no later than the next periodic maintenance interval or 30 days from the receipt of this SIL, whichever comes first. Affected units are certain LR7 aerial devices built on Freightliner M2-106 chassis from April 2016 through November 2019.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2021/MC-10189944-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2021/MC-10189944-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10189944","components":[{"id":"structure-body","name":"Body and frame","parent":null},{"id":"equipment","name":"Equipment and accessories","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":["maintenance"],"vehicles":[{"make":"ALTEC","model":"AERIAL DEVICE","year_from":2017,"year_to":2019,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"ALTEC","model":"LR760-E70","year_from":2019,"year_to":2019,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
