The risk

The excessive heat build-up can result in a fire, increasing the risk of injury at the work area.

Genie will notify owners and provide a replacement quick disconnect battery cable. The recall began May 23, 2019. Owners may contact Genie customer service at 1-800-536-1800. Genie's number for this recall is 190009.

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.
