What's wrong?
The hoist on 2021-2023 Old Dominion Brush Co. Truck Mounted Unit and Trailer Mount Unit equipment raises and lowers the dump body. It uses a cylinder, connecting rod, yoke, and bolt to move that heavy body in a controlled path. That bolt is the link that keeps the hoist assembly tied together while the body is moving.
On the recalled units, pressure builds above 800 psi when the hoist is retracting and then stalls while lowering the dump body. That extra pressure loads the bolt between the connecting rod and yoke until the bolt shears. Once the bolt breaks, the hoist fails and the dump body can unexpectedly lower onto the chassis.
There is no warning sign before failure. The filing does not identify a light, sound, or change in operation that tells an owner the bolt is about to shear. A unit that lifted normally earlier in the day still needs the recall repair if the VIN is included.
Who's affected?
Truck Mounted Unit and Trailer Mount Unit equipment from 2021, 2022, and 2023 share the same CS628 ODB hoist, which raises and lowers the dump body.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, an Old Dominion Brush Co. technician inspects the hoist, adds a pressure relief valve, and replaces the bolt between the connecting rod and yoke when inspection shows replacement is needed. The recall repair is available now, and parts and labor are covered. The manufacturer used its general reimbursement plan on file, so owners who already paid out of pocket for the same hoist repair should bring documentation and ask the service desk how to submit the claim.
