Defect. Schwing America, Inc. (Schwing) is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 S39SX, S43SX, S58SX and S61SX concrete pump trucks equipped with Sure Power DC-DC converters containing a particular epoxy sealing, aka 'potting', compound. The specific potting compound used in the subject products for insulation was found to be capable of conducting electricity after being exposed to heat.

Risk. Once electrically conductive, the material is capable of melting and burning, increasing the risk of a fire.

Remedy. Schwing America, Inc. will notify owners, and will replace the converters, free of charge. The recall began on March 20, 2014. Owners may contact Schwing at 1-888-724-9464.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
