Defect. Taylor-Dunn is recalling certain model year 2011 Trident low speed vehicles manufactured from February 2011 through June 2011. The steering wheel shaft may be insufficiently welded to the U-joint.

Risk. If the weld fails, steering control may be lost while driving, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

Remedy. Taylor-Dunn will notify owners, and dealers will replace the steering shafts, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in January 2013. Owners may contact Taylor-Dunn at 1-714-956-4040.

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.
