Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Thermo King Corporation is recalling certain Precedent C-600, S-600, S-600M, and S-700 refrigeration units manufactured between December 2012 and April 30, 2014. These units, which control temperature for cargo in truck semi-trailers, have plastic side panels that may open, break, or detach from the unit due to wind or air turbulence. If panels or pieces detach, they can become road hazards and increase the risk of a crash.
To remedy the issue, Thermo King will notify owners and install redesigned attachment hardware and locking mechanisms for the panels at no cost through authorized dealers. The recall began on June 9, 2014. Owners of affected units should contact Thermo King customer service at 1-952-887-2200.
