Chronology :

Doosan Portable PowereBay received a report on 7/29/21 of loose wheel lug nuts on four mobile generators. Based on the report, the company initiated an internal investigation. The company determined potential noncompliance with manufacturing requirements, and as of August 15, 2021 the wheel lug not torque on all production units are being tested and validated to ensure Engineering specifications have been achieved. During the investigation, the company received additional reports received on 8/17/21, 9/29/21, 10/4/21, and 10/5/21 of wheels coming off various portable air compressors and mobile generators while being towed.

On 10/04/21, the company contacted NHTSA to initiate reporting the issue. On 10/14/21, the company started notifying national account customers that owned the majority of potentially affected units, provided serial numbers, instructed them to stop towing immediately, and instruction on how to properly check and correct the issue as needed.
