Ud Recall 13V053000: Power Train, Automatic Transmission, Cooling Unit And Lines

NHTSA recall 13V053000 · announced February 19, 2013 · filed by Ud Trucks Corporation · 296 units affected

The problem

UD Trucks is recalling certain model year 2011-2013 UD2600 and UD3300 trucks equipped with Allison 3000RDS automatic transmissions. The oil cooler hose clamp retaining rings may fail.

The risk

If the retaining ring fails, the oil cooler hose may leak, leaving a large deposit on the roadway, which may present a hazard to other vehicles. If any of the oil sprays onto hot engine components, there would be an increased risk of a vehicle fire.

What to do

UD Trucks will notify owners, and dealers will replace the affected hoses free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact UD Trucks at 1-800-832-5929.
