2011 TEREX AERIAL DEVICES Complaints and Recall Information
The 2011 TEREX AERIAL DEVICES have 0 complaints and 7 recalls filed with NHTSA. Owners most frequently report issues related to structural integrity and electrical safety within various aerial device components.
There are seven recalls addressing structural and equipment defects. The recalls focus on frame cracks, pedestal and boom tip failures, leveling system damages, and electrical circuit protection failures.
Recalls- Frame cracks. NHTSA recall 14V287000 affects 42 vehicles. The recall covers model year 2006-2014 TLM series on Ford F550 vehicles where a notch in the vehicle frame may crack, risking frame failure and loss of control. Terex will repair cracked frames and add reinforcement to prevent cracking.
- Pedestal cracks. Recall 16V174000 involves 33 model year 2007-2013 TLM37, TLM40, TLM41, and TLM50 aerial devices. Missing reinforcements can cause the pedestal attached to lift turrets to crack, risking operator injury. Dealers will install reinforcement plates at no cost.
- Leveling system failure. Recall 16V040000 affects 73 vehicles from model years 2011-2015 SCM48, SCM50, and SCM55. The leveling cylinder linkage can move beyond its stop, damaging the leveling system and causing platform tilt. Dealers will install stops to prevent excess movement free of charge.
- Weld failure at boom tip. Recall 16V177000 covers 2,153 model years 2011-2016 HR, HRX, TC, TCX, and SML devices. Inadequate welds at boom tip leveling sprockets may cause unexpected platform tilting, increasing fall risk. Terex will provide replacement sprockets or reinforcement kits at no cost.
- Boom tip and master cylinder damage. Recall 16V118000 involves 465 model years 2008-2015 TLM37, TLM37P, TLM39, TLM41, TLM50, TLM55, and TLLM60 devices. Contact between cylinders and structural parts may crack rod eyes, leading to platform tilt and occupant falls. Dealers will modify devices to prevent contact free of charge.
- Electrical breaker defect. Recall 17V320000 affects 58 vehicles from model years 2007-2016 equipped with multiple aerial devices and digger derricks. The GFPE breaker may not trip properly during a short circuit on the onboard socket, increasing shock risk. Dealers will replace breakers with GFCI versions at no cost.
- Electrical system hazard. Recall 17V320000 duplicates the above recall details focused on the electrical system component with the same affected units, risk, and remedy. Dealers will perform the same GFCI breaker replacement free of charge.
Owners dealing with repeated repairs, safety defects, or unresolved recall issues may have rights under state lemon laws and should consider consulting a qualified attorney to discuss potential remedies.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Terex South Dakota (TSD) is recalling certain 2007-2016 vehicles equipped with Terex C4000, FC, HR, HRX, SCM, TC, TCX, TL, TPL, and XT aerial devices and digger derricks used for utility line work. In the event of a short circuit of a tool plugged into the onboard electrical socket, the GFPE breaker may not trip at the proper current before the user receives a shock.
Risk: Without proper protection against electrical shock, the user has a greater risk of injury.

STRUCTURE
Terex South Dakota, Inc. (Terex) is recalling certain model year 2007-2013 TLM37, TLM40, TLM41, and TLM50 aerial devices manufactured March 29, 2007, to January 31, 2013. The aerial devices have the pedestal attached to the lift turrets that may crack due to missing reinforcements.
Risk: Cracks, if not repaired, may result in the failure of the aerial pedestal, increasing the risk of injury to the operator or those nearby.
2011 TEREX AERIAL DEVICES
465 vehicles affected
EQUIPMENT
Terex South Dakota, Inc. (Terex) is recalling certain 2008-2015 TLM37, TLM37P, TLM39, TLM41, TLM50, TLM55, and TLLM60 aerial devices manufactured June 18, 2008, to September 28, 2015. On the affected devices, both the boom tip leveling cylinder and the master cylinder at the elbow may make contact with the structural components, potentially damaging the boom tip leveling cylinder rod eye and the master cylinder rod eye.
Risk: Repeated contact may result in the rod eyes cracking. This cracking can lead to the failure of the boom tip leveling cylinder rod eye and the platform tilting unexpectedly which could cause the occupants to fall from the aerial platform, increasing their risk of injury.

STRUCTURE
Terex South Dakota (Terex) is recalling certain model year 2011-2016 HR, HRX, TC, TCX, and SML aerial devices. The affected aerial devices may have inadequate welds at the boom tip leveling sprockets. A failure of these welds may result in the platform tilting unexpectedly.
Risk: If the platform tilts unexpectedly, the user may fall, increasing their risk of injury.
2011 TEREX AERIAL DEVICES
73 vehicles affected
STRUCTURE
Terex South Dakota, Inc. (Terex) is recalling certain model year 2011-2015 SCM48, SCM50, and SCM55 aerial devices manufactured August 24, 2011, to November 5, 2015. The affected vehicles have a leveling cylinder linkage that can be forced past its intended stop position, causing damage to, and failure of, the leveling system.
Risk: If the leveling system fails, the aerial platform may tilt, increasing the risk of injury to the user or those nearby.
