What this recall means for you
A valve bank cover on the crane mounted to certain Dominator vehicles may crack and detach while the vehicle is being driven. The cover is part of the crane's hydraulic valve assembly, and the defect affects vehicles built between April 4, 2013 and January 22, 2016.
If the valve bank cover comes off the crane while the vehicle is moving, it can become a road hazard for other drivers and increases the risk of a crash.
