Defect

On slide-bed vehicle transporters, the mounting plate that secures the loading ramps has insufficient strength. Vibration during driving causes cracks to develop at the welds of the mounting plate. If use continues, the cracks progress and, in the worst case, the weld joint separates, causing the loading ramp to fall rearward while the vehicle is in motion.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the ramp securing bracket with a reinforced replacement part that includes an additional reinforcing plate.
