Defect description
Lodi Truck and Equipment (Lodi) is recalling certain model year 2013-2016 Dominator I, Dominator II, Dominator III, Dominator IV, and Dominator-Propane trucks manufactured April 4, 2013, to January 22, 2016, equipped with IMT cranes, models 6000, 7500, 8600, 9500, 10000, 12000, or 14000. The affected cranes have a valve bank cover that may crack and fall from the crane while the crane is being transported.
Safety risk
If the valve bank cover detaches from the crane it could be a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
Manufacturer remedy
Lodi will notify owners, and dealers will replace the valve bank cover, with a thicker cover, free of charge. Owners may contact Lodi customer service at 1-916-372-5634.
