Problem: Terex South Dakota, Inc. (Terex) is recalling certain 2018-2019 C4045, C4047, C5050, and C7066 Digger Derrick vehicles. Due to an engine computer program error, if the hood switch fails or opens, the remote engine start/stop function becomes disabled.

Fix: Terex will notify owners, and dealers will replace the affected guide bars, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin December 14, 2018. Owners may contact Terex at 1-605-882-4000. Terex's recall number for this recall is SN669.
