The risk
Unexpected movement of the aerial bucket increases the risk of an injury.
The remedy
HME will reprogram the aerial controls and modify the hydraulic system, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 2, 2021. Owners may contact HME customer service at 1-616-534-1463.

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.
