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 .

How this campaign compares
At 340 vehicles this is a small campaign: 53% 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 one model year, 2023, 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 36 times before this, most recently in October 2023 as 23V703000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 24V526000 (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 January 25, 2024 as campaign 24V042000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
