Defect: Terex Advance (Terex) is recalling certain model year 2015 Front Discharge Concrete Mixer Trucks manufactured April 1, 2015, to June 23, 2015. In the affected trucks, the bolts that secure the concrete mixing drum to the drum drive plate may not have been properly tightened.
Consequence: If the bolts are not properly tightened, the drum may separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury or a crash.
Remedy: Terex will notify owners, and dealers will install new bolts using a thread locker, after removing the paint from under the fasteners. These repairs will be done free of charge. The recall began on Sptember 23, 2015. Owners may contact Terex customer service at 1-800-433-6691.
Defect: Terex Advance (Terex) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Front Discharge Concrete Mixer Trucks manufactured August 20, 2012, to December 5, 2014. Due to improperly secured castellated retaining nuts on the front axle leaf spring rear pin and the steering system, the rear end of the front axle leaf spring may partially disconnect from the front suspension hanger.
Consequence: If the front axle spring becomes partially disconnected from the front suspension hanger, steering difficulty may result, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Terex will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and correct the retaining nut installation, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on May 15, 2015. Owners may contact Terex customer service at 1-800-433-6691.

Notes on this record
Complaints from the API and bulk file are merged and deduplicated by ODI number; the API alone misses records.
System and subsystem counts are numbers of distinct complaints, recalls or communications that name them. One record can name several systems, so shares across systems can add to more than 100 percent; a single share never exceeds 100 percent.
Recalls are counted once per campaign, investigations once per action and manufacturer communications once per NHTSA id, even when NHTSA lists several model names for the same record.
A sales denominator is a calendar-year proxy, not the population of vehicles still in use. Rates are copied from verified pipeline output.
NHTSA's complaints API and bulk file list no complaint for this make, model and model year in this data build.
