Reported: 2015-06-24 (June 24, 2015) · Model years: 2013, 2014, 2015
Shred-Tech Corporation (Shred-Tech) is recalling certain model year 2011-2013 MDS-20GT vehicles manufactured July 1, 2011, to March 1, 2013, 2010-2013 MDS-26GTX vehicles manufactured August 2, 2010, to March 1, 2013, 2013-2015 MDS 1/26 vehicles manufactured April 1, 2013, to May 1, 2015, and 2013-2015 MDS 2/26 vehicles manufactured March 1, 2015, to May 29, 2015. The affected vehicles were built on Hino 258LP and Freightliner M2 106 chassis and are equipped with EPA 2010 Emission Controls. With the EPA controls, the vehicles exceed the front axle Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) specified on the certification label. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
Consequence: If the axle weight on the certification label is exceeded, it can cause poor vehicle handling or front axle failure, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Remedy: Shred-Tech will notify owners, and dealers will install a revised certification label on vehicles built on Freightliner M2 chassis increasing the GAWR to 9,000 pounds, and will modify the wheel base to redistribute the weight on vehicles built on Hino 258LP chassis, free of charge. The recall began on July 30, 2015. Owners may contact Shred-Tech customer service at 1-800-465-3214.
