Summary: On certain drill rigs and well service rigs equipped with bendix antilock brake system (ABS), the air brake valving installed on the drive axles of certain tri-drive axle is inadequate and it does not have the correct air valve configuration for the rapid release and reapplication of air necessary for the ABS to function.
Consequence: Reduced braking performance could increase the risk of a vehicle crash.
Remedy: Dealers will install two relay air valves so that the valves will facilitate the rapid exhaust of air required for the ABS system to function optimally free of charge. The recall began on February 11, 2005. Owners may contact crane carrier at 918-832-7305.

Has your Crane been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

Check your VIN with NHTSA

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Crane dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
