What the notice says to do (the remedy, in its words)
“Autocar, LLC (Autocar) is recalling certain 2023-2027 E-ACTT terminal tractors. The Antilock Braking System (ABS) Electronic Control Unit (ECU) may be improperly secured, allowing the ABS ECU to separate.” “A separated ABS ECU may become damaged, causing the ABS system to fail and increasing the risk of a crash.”AUTOCAR SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:ANTILOCK:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE recall, NHTSA recall record, 2026-07-30. The caption and the remedy steps are the record's own words.
A generic drawing of the kind of part, not the part itself. The failure mark follows the record's verb; the phrases on the right are the record's own words. The test dummy stands for the risk the notice names (“risk of a crash”); it is not a record of something that happened.
