Defect summary

Stanley Assembly Technologies (SAT) is recalling certain MAC Tools DTG1000C, DTG1000, DTG1000B, DTG1000A, and DTG1014 tire pressure gauges sold exclusively though MAC independent dealers. The gauge may display a lower than actual pressure when the battery voltage is low.

Consequence

If the user relies on the inaccurate pressure and continues to inflate the tire, the tire may burst due over-pressure, increasing the risk of an injury.

Remedy

Signs will be posted in MAC trucks, and users will be compensated for each returned gauge. The recall began on October 14, 2019. Owners may contact SAT customer service at 1-614-876-3809.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
