Jomac recall: Equipment
What is wrong
Jomac, Ltd. (Jomac) is recalling certain model year 2009-2013 Ford F-350, F-450, and F-550 Super Duty vehicles modified by Jomac and equipped with certain Muncie Power Products PTO Assemblies. In the affected vehicles, oil may leak from the PTO pressure switch onto a thermal blanket covering the exhaust.
What could happen
The leaking oil may soak into the thermal blanket covering the exhaust, which when combined with heat from exhaust, may result in an increased risk of fire.
The fix
Jomac will notify owners, and dealers will install a new pressure switch kit that moves the switch away from the exhaust system. Repairs will be made free of charge. The recall began September 5, 2014. Owners may contact Jomac customer service at 1-800-755-4488.
