Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Vermeer Manufacturing Company is recalling 84 units of its 2024 BC1200XL brush chippers because the mounting bolts that secure the axle to the main frame may not have been properly tightened. If these bolts are loose, the axle can separate from the brush chipper while in use or being towed. Owners should contact a Vermeer dealer to have the mounting bolts replaced free of charge.

Risk

A loose axle mounting bolt can result in the entire axle separating from the brush chipper, which significantly increases the risk of a crash or loss of control while towing.
