NHTSA recall campaign
14V746000
What was wrong
Defect
Terex Aerial Work Platforms (Terex) is recalling certain model year 2014 Light Tower AL5 work platforms manufactured October 16, 2013, to June 11, 2014. The affected work platforms have insufficient structural support for the lower section of the 60 gallon fuel tank. This reduced support can cause the fuel tank to become deformed and contact the trailer axle.
Risk
A deformed fuel tank making contact with the trailer axle could increase the risk of a vehicle fire.
Manufacturer remedy
Terex will notify owners, and dealers will add structural support to the lower part of the fuel tank, free of charge. The recall began on December 18, 2014. The structural support remedy will be available starting December 29, 2014. Owners may contact Terex customer service at 1-800-536-1800. Terex's number for this recall is SN 140016.
