The defect
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.
The risk
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.
The 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.
