What is wrong
LDJ Manufacturing, Inc. (LDJ) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Thunder Creek Multi-Tank Upfit vehicles. The adhesive that secures the rubber filler in the place between the chassis and the upfit could fail, potentially causing the rubber to come out of place and cause movement of the upfit and load.
What can happen
The movement of the chassis and load could cause bolts securing the tank to the chassis to shear, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
LDJ will notify owners, and dealers will install aluminum brackets around the rubber filler between the chassis and the upfit to secure the rubber filler in place. Additionally, dealers will install nuts with locking washers on the upfitted load in order to further secure the load to the upfit. All services will be performed free of charge. The recall began May 5, 2020. Owners may contact LDJ customer service at 1-641-620-9412.
