LDV is recalling certain Ford and Chevrolet trucks.  The models are Chevrolet 2007 through 2009 C5550, 2008 through 2009 W5550, and 2008 Ford F-650 Chassis specifically for Snap-On Tools trucks.  They stated that there may be a cable installed on the battery isolator.  With all cables tightened down on the stud, this cable lug may be pressed against the cooling fins of the isolator, where contact poses a risk of electrical short which could result in cables overheating.

This contact poses a risk of electrical short, which could result in cables overheating and a fire could occur.  Dealers will conduct a two step remedy.  The first step is to inspect the cable insulation to ensure all cables are installed with the lug body facing away from the isolator with none in contact with the cooling fins.  The second step is to add a grounding strap or able to HE aluminum box to properly ground it and the components mounted within it.  Owners may contact LDV at 1-608-257-3911.
