An aerial lift platform collapse can increase the risk of injury.
The remedy
Equipment Technology will notify owners and will replace the boom tubes on all affected aerial lift trucks at ETI's facility, free of charge. The recall began September 9, 2020. Owners may contact ETI customer service at 1-405-748-3841.

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.
