What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Doosan Portable Power (Doosan) is recalling certain 2019-2021 Doosan Portable Power Air Compressors and Mobile Generators. The wheel lug nuts may be improperly tightened.

The risk

Improperly tightened lug nuts can cause a loss of trailer stability, or the tire could fall off, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Owners are advised to not tow their trailer until the remedy has been performed. Dealers will tighten the lug nuts, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 4, 2021. Owners may contact Doosan customer service at 1-800-633-5206, Option #3.

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.nhtsa.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.
