Problem Vermeer Manufacturing Company (Vermeer) is recalling certain 2016-2020 BC1000XL, BC1200XL, BC1500, and AX19 brush chipper trailers. Incorrect lug nuts may have been installed, possibly resulting in the lug nuts loosening. Risk If the lug nuts loosen while the vehicle is in motion, the wheel may detach and become a road hazard, or there may be a loss of control of the trailer. Either scenario increases the risk of a crash.

Owner renotification letters were mailed February 24, 2022. The recall began July 6, 2020. Owners may contact Vermeer customer service at 1-800-829-0051, extension 7060.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. IK3922 is the number Vermeer assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 20V085000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Check one specific vehicle

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.

Which vehicles does IK3922 cover?

2010–2020 Vermeer AX19 and 3 other Vermeer models, 8,040 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.
