The defect
Terex Aerial Work Platforms (Terex Aerial) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 AL4 and RL4 light towers. Due to a missing plug, water may enter the electrical connection that controls the lighting, causing arcing inside the connection.

Loss of lighting in low light conditions could result in an increased risk of injury to those depending on the lights for jobsite safety.
The remedy
Terex Aerial will notify owners and dealers will install the missing plug, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on March 26, 2014. Customers may contact Terex at 1-800-536-1800. Terex Aerial's number for this recall is 140001.

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.
