Summary

Reading Truck Body, LLC "Reading" is recalling certain 2019-2021 Master Mechanic Crane Body & Upfit vehicles. The Power Take Off "PTO" Timer Delay Relay module is mounted under the hood instead of in the vehicle cab, subjecting it to moisture which can lead to corrosion and cause the module to overheat.

Consequence

Overheating of the PTO Timer module increases the risk of a fire.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect and replace the PTO Timer module, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on May 13, 2022. Owners may contact Reading's customer service at 1-610-775-3301.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
