What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Liftmoore, Inc. is recalling Sure Power Battery Equalizers, part number 12040E00, sold as replacement parts for installation and use on certain 2001 through 2006 6036WX crane trucks. The specific potting compound used in the subject products for insulation was found to be capable of conducting electricity after being exposed to heat.

The risk

Once electrically conductive, the material is capable of melting and burning, increasing the risk of a fire.

The remedy

Liftmoore will notify owners, and dealers will replace any affected battery equalizer, free of charge. Owners may contact Liftmoore customer service at 1-713-688-5533. Liftmoore's number for this recall is 13E-050.

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.
