Plain-English summary
Crane Carrier Company is recalling three model year 2009 LET2 cab and chassis utility vehicles manufactured between April 24, 2009, and September 15, 2009. These specific vehicles are equipped with ELFA traction drive motors.
The recall addresses a defect where the electric motor's speed sensor signal may be misinterpreted by the motor controller.
