EQUIPMENT
- The defect
- Terex South Dakota, Inc. (Terex) is recalling certain 2019-2020 TL80 and TL100 aerial devices. The rotation bearing bolts may loosen during unit use, causing them to fail.
- What it can cause
- If the rotation bearing bolts fail, the boom could fall, increasing the risk of injury or death.
- What the dealer does
- Terex will notify owners, and dealers will install Field Service Kit Z1604 which includes replacement rotation bearing bolts, washers, pedestal reinforcement plates, and bolt spacers, free of charge. Owners are advised to perform a pre-shift inspection procedure until the repair is complete. The recall began November 24, 2020. Owners may contact Terex customer service at 1-605-882-4000. Terex's number for this recall is SN687.
- NHTSA's note
- 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.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
| Vehicle | Model years | Safety record |

How this campaign compares
At 40 vehicles this is a small campaign: 80% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2019 to 2020, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Terex vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 28 times before this, most recently in April 2020 as 20V240000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 20V240000 (equipment).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Terex South Dakota, Inc. with NHTSA on November 11, 2020 as campaign 20V696000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
