What’s wrong with it?
THESE BOLTS CAN LOOSEN DURING NORMAL VEHICLE USE AND FALL OUT. THIS MAY LEAD TO THE CAB SEPARATING FROM THE VEHICLE’S CHASSIS DURING A VEHICLE CRASH THAT MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
ON CERTAIN TRUCKS, THE BOLTS THAT MOUNT THE FRONT OF THE CAB TO THE MOUNTING BRACKETS WERE NOT PROPERLY TORQUED AT THE MANUFACTURING PLANT.

What the record doesn’t say
- NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
- Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
- This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
