2000–2009 Terex XT60 recall: equipment
⚠️ What's wrong
Terex telelect is recalling certain model year 1998 through 2009 XT60 aerial devices mounted on trucks. These vehicles are used to elevate people into work areas up to 60 feet in the air. Cracks CAN develop around the lower boom hinge pin boss at the turntable which CAN progress into failure of the plates if not detected.
💥 The risk
Failure of the plates will cause unexpected motion of the boom and could cause the platform to fall, resulting in serious injury or death to a person standing on the platform.

Terex will notify owners and will repair the vehicles free of charge. The safety recall began on february 5, 2010. Owners may contact terex utilities warranty department at 1-605-884-3892.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
