The issue

Certain trucks may have been built with bare mufflers mounted at the back of the cab behind air shields. There is no heat shield to protect someone from contacting the hot muffler if they are standing on a deck plate behind the cab. Also, some of these vehicles were equipped with deck plates with no grab handle for access. Correction: Muffler shields and where necessary, grab handles will be installed on affected vehicles.

Description (français)

Certains camions sont équipés de silencieux sans bouclier thermique montés à l'arrière de la cabine, derrière les déflecteurs d'air. Les personnes qui doivent monter sur la plage arrière, derrière la cabine, ne sont pas protégées contre la chaleur du silencieux. Certains de ces véhicules ont aussi été construits sans poignée d'accès à la plage arrière. Correction : Des boucliers thermiques et des poignées d'accès devront être installés au besoin sur les véhicules visés.
