The defect
Iowa Mold Tooling Co., Inc. (IMT) is recalling certain model year 2013-2016 Dominator-Propane, Dominator I, Dominator II, Dominator III, and Dominator IV vehicles manufactured April 4, 2013, to January 22, 2016. The affected vehicles are fitted with IMT Series III cranes, models 6000, 7500, 8600, 9500, 10000, 12000, and 14000, which have a valve bank cover that may crack and fall from the crane while the vehicle is being driven.
The risk
If the valve bank cover detaches from the crane it could be a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
IMT will notify owners, and dealers will replace the valve bank cover with a thicker one, free of charge. The recall began on April 6, 2016. Owners may contact IMT customer service at 1-800-247-5958. IMT's number for this recall is TB2016002.
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.
