2013 Vactor Guzzler recalls
Recall 13V-119: Equipment
Problem: Vactor Manufacturing (Vactor) is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 HXX and Guzzler vacuum trucks equipped with an Alkota water heater. These trucks were not equipped with an oil primary control. If the burner for the water heater fails to ignite normally, fuel can accumulate in the water heater combustion chamber.
Risk: If fuel accumulates, when the burner is lit, there may be a larger than normal flame which could lead to a vehicle fire.
Fix: Vactor will notify owners, and dealers will replace the burner assembly, free of charge. The recall began during April 2013. Customers may contact Vactor at 1-815-672-3171. Vactor's recall number is SB-263.
