The defect
Terex Advance (Terex) is recalling certain model year 2015 Front Discharge Concrete Mixer Trucks manufactured April 1, 2015, to June 23, 2015. In the affected trucks, the bolts that secure the concrete mixing drum to the drum drive plate may not have been properly tightened.
The risk
If the bolts are not properly tightened, the drum may separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury or a crash.
The remedy
Terex will notify owners, and dealers will install new bolts using a thread locker, after removing the paint from under the fasteners. These repairs will be done free of charge. The recall began on Sptember 23, 2015. Owners may contact Terex customer service at 1-800-433-6691.
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.
