Plain-English summary

Terex Advance is recalling certain model year 2011-2015 FD4000B, FD5000B, FD6000B, and FD7000B concrete mixers. The affected vehicles were manufactured between January 1, 2011, and September 1, 2015. A total of 288 units are included in this recall.

The defect involves steerable tag axles operated by Eaton Hydraulics S26 Gear Pumps. These gear pumps may unexpectedly fail, which reduces the vehicle's ability to steer properly. The loss of steering ability may increase the risk of a crash.

Terex will notify owners, and dealers will replace the S26 gear pumps free of charge. The recall began on December 22, 2015. Owners may contact Terex customer service at 1-800-433-6691 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
