Other#2010116April 13, 2010
13 units affected
On certain vehicles, a retaining pin, used to secure the lower clevis pin on the debris body hoist cylinder, may not have been installed during assembly. This can cause the clevis pin to work out, which could allow the debris body to tip over backwards, possibly resulting in property damage, personnel injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, install cotter pins on the lower cylinder clevis pin.
