The defect
Terex South Dakota, Inc. (Terex) is recalling certain model year 2001-2003 XT52, XT55 and XT60 aerial devices manufactured January 1, 2001, to May 31, 2003. The affected trucks have aerial devices that may have been built with lower booms made of material of insufficient strength.
The risk
Booms made from weaker materials may crack and fail, increasing the risk of injury to the boom operator or those nearby.
The remedy
Terex will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the lower boom to verify that it was made with the correct material. Any boom that was made with an improper material will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on June 9, 2016. Owners may contact Terex customer service at 1-800-982-8975. Terex's recall campaign number is SN618. Note: This recall is an expansion of recall 15V-353.
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.
