The problem
Terex South Dakota, Inc. (Terex) is recalling certain 2009-2016 TCX60/85 and SML65/90 aerial devices. The rod eyes on the 25ft lift cylinders may fail prematurely.
The risk
If the rod eye fails the lift boom will drift down. The remaining cylinder may not support the boom fully and will slowly leak down. These scenarios increase the risk of an injury.
The fix
Terex will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rod eyes and shims, free of charge. The recall began April 9, 2020. Owners may contact Terex customer service at 1-605-882-4000. Terex's number for this recall is SN684.
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.safercar.gov.
