The issue
Certain vehicles are equipped with stainless steel wrapped mufflers mounted vertically behind the cab with grabhandles attached to them for cab access. Persons using the grabhandles for support while entering or exiting the cab would receive severe burns if their hand or arm came in contact with a hot muffler. Correction: Heat shields will be added to the mufflers.
