What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (undersized welds) that creates a road hazard and increases the risk of a crash, meeting the criteria for a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

Vermeer Manufacturing Company is recalling certain 2024-2025 VXT600 G2 vacuum vehicles. The recall addresses undersized welds on the lift supports that may fail, which could allow the spoil tank door to open.

If the lift supports fail, the contents of the tank can fall out of the vehicle. This creates a road hazard and increases the risk of a crash.

Dealers will repair the lift support welds free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on December 10, 2024. Owners may contact Vermeer customer service at 1-800-829-0051 ext. 7060 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
