The defect
Con-Tech Manufacturing (Con-Tech) is recalling certain model year 2015-2017 BridgeKing concrete mixer trucks manufactured September 13, 2015, to April 8, 2016. On the affected vehicles, the fender mounts on the bridge axles may crack and the fenders may separate from the vehicle.
The risk
A fender that detaches from the bridge axle can become a road hazard and increase the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Con-Tech will notify owners, and dealers will install a service kit that includes fender mount support gussets, free of charge. The recall began on November 2, 2016. Owners may contact Con-Tech customer service at 1-507-374-2239.
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.
