2017–2020 Eby Dump Body recall: equipment
⚠️ What's wrong
M H EBY is recalling certain 2017-2020 EBY Truck Body dump vehicles. The cotter pin that secures the hoist cylinder may detach possibly causing the dump body to fall unexpectedly.
💥 The risk
If the lifting mechanism fails, the truck body could fall quickly, increasing the risk of an injury to those nearby.
🔧 The fix
M H EBY will notify owners, and dealers will remove the cotter pin and replace it with a secure bolt with a locking nut, free of charge. The recall began September 25, 2020. Owners may contact M H EBY customer service at 1-717-354-4971.
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.)
