Bott Heavy Duty Battery: Battery May Fail Prematurely
BOTT Heavy Duty Battery Recall Summary BOTT is recalling 138 vehicles equipped with standard batteries that may fail prematurely due to heavy electrical demand from additional equipment. Repeated charging and discharging can cause the battery to deteriorate over time, potentially leading to internal failure and explosion. Affected vehicles will have their standard battery replaced with a heavy-duty AGM battery.
- Recalling firm
- BOTT LTD
- Product
- Vehicles: BOTT Heavy Duty Battery. Units affected: 138
- Reason
- The vehicle is equipped with additional electrically operated equipment which can result in the standard vehicle battery being subjected to high consumption due to the constant charging and discharging. It is therefore possible that after a number of years the condition of the battery can deteriorate to such an extent that an internal failure could result in the battery exploding. Remedy: Recall all affected vehicle and replace the standard vehicle battery with heavy duty high amperage deep cycle AGM battery.
