McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing, Inc. states that making any changes to the eZR Low Voltage (LV) wiring system on Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) units have been shown to, in some instances, affect the ability of the system to properly charge. Typically, BEV systems rely on a complete sleep mode during charging; therefore, any changes that affect the ignition key-off state of the vehicle have been shown especially likely to impact the charging procedure.
ZR-IB-016
It has been determined that certain McNeilus Zero Radius side loader refuse vehicles may have a hydraulic pressure spike that may cause premature failure to the fan cooler. The fan cooler may be permanently bypassed by following the instructions in this informational bulletin to bypass the fan cooler with a hydraulic hose allowing the refuse body functions to remain functional.
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
