What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Terex South Dakota, Inc. (Terex) is recalling certain model year 1997-2013 XT55 and XT60 Aerial Devices mounted on utility trucks. Cracks may develop around the lower boom hinge pin boss at the turntable.

The risk

Cracks may cause unexpected motion of the boom and could cause the aerial platform to fall, resulting in personal injury.

The remedy

Terex will notify owners, and dealers will provide a preventative welding reinforcement, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners are to continue to follow the inspection and repair process as detailed in NHTSA recalls 10V028 and 11V542. The safety recall began on November 8, 2013. Owners may contact Terex at 1-605-882-4000. Terex's number for this campaign is SN608.

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.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
