What this recall means for you
Some aerial platform trucks have an electrical connector to the turntable wiring harness that may not be properly secured. Over time, this can lead to corrosion at the connector and affect the platform basket's ability to stay level.
If the basket cannot maintain level, it may tip, which increases the risk of injury to workers in the basket. Owners of affected trucks should take this seriously and contact the manufacturer promptly.
The remedy is free: Pierce Manufacturing will replace the aerial turntable wiring harness at no cost. Owners who were mailed notification letters on December 14, 2023 can contact Pierce customer service at 1-888-974-3723. You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls.
