Crane / Crane Carrier recall: Service brakes, air

What is wrong

Crane carrier is recalling certain model year 2010-2011dr, let2,oet, ws, and model year 2010 ldt2 cab and chassis utility vehicles manufactured from october 26, 2010, through march 18, 2011 and equipped with gunite automatic air brake slack adjusters. Due to an incomplete "knitting" of the iron at the time of casting, inadequate structural integrity of the slack adjuster housing can occur, which could cause the housing to break at the handle under normal operating loads.

What could happen

Slack adjusters with this flow notch could crack under normal braking conditions causing loss of braking which could result in a vehicle crash.

The fix

Crane carrier will notify owners and accuride/gunite will conduct the remedy for this campaign and replace the subject slack adjusters free of charge. The safety recall began on april 26, 2011. Owners may contact accuride at 1-800-677-3786 or crane carrier at 1-918-832-7305.
