Affected vehicles
ニイガタ Niigata NR82 Rotary Snow Plow 2011–2013
Hazard
In snow removal vehicles, due to inadequate structural analysis of the vehicle frame, stress concentration may occur in parts of the frame during operation or work, and this stress may exceed the allowable limit of the frame. If use continues in this condition, cracks may develop in the frame, and in the worst case, the frame may break and the vehicle may become unable to operate.
