The problem
Mitsubishi Fuso Truck of America, Inc. (Mitsubishi Fuso) is recalling certain model year 2012-2015 FEC52, FEC72, FEC92, and FGB72 trucks manufactured April 8, 2011, to April 18, 2014. The automatic transmission fluid (ATF) oil cooler hose may burst.
The risk
If the hose bursts, the ATF would leak out. Once a significant amount of fluid is lost, the transmission may become inoperative, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Mitsubishi Fuso will notify owners, and dealers will replace any affected ATF oil cooler hoses, free of charge. The recall began on November 26, 2014. Owners may contact Mitsubishi Fuso customer service at 1-877-711-0707. Mitsubishi Fuso's number for this recall is C1007010.
