MORryde Recalls Battery Trays for Ford F-550 Chassis Due to Weld Defects

MORryde is recalling battery trays for Ford F-550 chassis because inadequate welds may allow the tray to detach, creating a road hazard or battery discharge.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (inadequate welds) that can lead to component detachment and increased crash risk, meeting the criteria for a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

MORryde International, Inc. is recalling certain battery trays sold for installation on Ford F-550 chassis. The recall addresses a defect where the battery trays may have inadequate welds, which allows the battery tray to detach from the chassis.

If the battery tray detaches, the contents of the tray may fall out and become a road hazard, and the battery may discharge. Either scenario increases the risk of a crash.

MORryde will notify the vehicle manufacturers that purchased the trays, and dealers for those manufacturers will install additional weld areas on both sides of the battery tray for additional support, free of charge. The recall began July 29, 2019. Owners may contact MORryde customer service at 1-574-293-1581 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
