Chronology :

In late March 2022, Oshkosh was initially notified by a customer that it had experienced a thermal event with one of its trucks. Additional information was received in April 2022, and Oshkosh took steps to have the vehicle returned to it for inspection and review. Because the concrete located in the drum had hardened, this complicated the transportation of the vehicle to the Oshkosh facility. An assessment of the vehicle took place in April 2022 and observed that the clearance between the alternator cable wiring and the hydraulic hoses for the hood assembly did not appear to be sufficient and there was chafing of the cables. Oshkosh then inspected preproduction vehicles that had been produced before the vehicle involved in this incident but did not find any signs of wearing or chafing of the cables. In April 2022, Oshkosh updated its work instructions to clarify the proper orientation and positioning of the cable routing to ensure sufficient clearance between the alternator cable and hydraulic hose. On May 19, 2022, Oshkosh decided to conduct a safety recall for this issue.
