This is a recall of aftermarket equipment listed for the vehicles below. It applies only if the recalled part was installed on the vehicle.
- Summary
- Terex is recalling 1,167 tc series aerial devices equipped with check valve, p/n 443847, installed from September 2001 until March 2007. The valve is located on the lower boom lift cylinder. Failure can occur only when the vehicle is parked and the aerial device is in operation. The check valve is used in retiming of the boom when the platform is out of level. The flow through the check valve can cause the snap ring to fail if the retiming flow is abnormally high. The check valve components will flow into the lift cylinder if the snap ring fails.
- Consequence
- Debris may scratch the cylinder wall or get into holding valves and cause the platform to drift down slowly, which could possibly result in serious injury or death to the platform user.
- Remedy
- Terex will notify owners and replace the defective check valves free of charge. The recall began on February 7, 2008. Owners may contact terex utilities warranty department by calling 1-605-882-4000.

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