Electrical arcing can increase the risk of a fire.
The remedy
Dealers will secure the electrical wires, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 18, 2024. Owners may contact Morbark's customer service at 1-800-255-8839.

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.
