Recalls for 2004 Indiana Concrete Mixer

DEFECT #1 - SUSPENSION

Posted on: 2005-05-03
Description
On certain heavy duty class 8 front discharge concrete trucks equipped with holland suspension, the suspension has transverse beam castings that may fracture under normal loads.  If a casting breaks when the vehicle is traveling on a roadway, there is the potential for pieces of the casting to become projectiles and the suspension's transverse beam may drop down low enough to contact the road surface.  

Consequence
This could cause sparks that could potentially ignite and cause a fire.

Corrective Action
Holland, in conjunction with indiana phoenix, will inspect and replace the defective transverse beam assemblies free of charge.  Owners should contact holland usa at 1-616-396-6501 or indiana phoenix at 260-897-4397.
