2015–2017 Con-Tech Bridgeking recall: suspension
⚠️ What's wrong
Con-Tech Manufacturing (Con-Tech) is recalling certain model year 2015-2017 BridgeKing concrete mixer trucks manufactured September 13, 2015, to April 8, 2016. On the affected vehicles, the fender mounts on the bridge axles may crack and the fenders may separate from the vehicle.
💥 The risk
A fender that detaches from the bridge axle can become a road hazard and increase the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Con-Tech will notify owners, and dealers will install a service kit that includes fender mount support gussets, free of charge. The recall began on November 2, 2016. Owners may contact Con-Tech customer service at 1-507-374-2239.
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.)
