What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Terex South Dakota, Inc. (Terex) is recalling certain model year 2006-2014 TLM series models manufactured from December 2006 through February 2014 which were installed on Ford F550 vehicles. The affected vehicles may develop a crack in a notch of the vehicle frame.

The risk

A crack in the frame may cause frame failure, resulting in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Terex will notify owners, and dealers will repair any cracked frames and install a preventative reinforcement on the affected vehicles which have not cracked, free of charge. The recall began on July 8, 2014. Owners may contact Terex customer service at 1-605-882-4000. Terex's number for this recall is SN610.

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.
