Terex Digger Derrick
The defect
Terex South Dakota, Inc. (Terex) is recalling certain 2018-2019 C4045, C4047, C5050, and C7066 Digger Derrick vehicles. Due to an engine computer program error, if the hood switch fails or opens, the remote engine start/stop function becomes disabled.
The risk
A disabled remote engine start/stop prevents the digger derrick operator from shutting the engine off during hydraulic issues on the digger, increasing the risk of injury.
The remedy
Terex will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the engine computer program, free of charge. The recall began April 16, 2020. Owners may contact Terex customer service at 1-605-882-4000. Terex's number for this recall is SN682.
