10E056000Received 6 Dec 2010. 10,816 units.
Equipment
Defect, in the NHTSA record
Kinedyne is recalling certain aftermarket combination winch bars, part numbers 10032 (black) and 10033 (chrome) shipped from january 1, 2010, through october 25, 2010. Due to a manufacturing anomaly, the subject winch bars may be prone to fracture at the weld that joins the steel bar to the box end (chain binder).
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
This anomaly may cause the weld joint to fail and the box end to abruptly separate during normal use. If the weld fails unexpectedly, the winch bar could strike the user or cause the user to lose his or her balance and fall (especially when the user is positioned on top of the trailer or its cargo during use).
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Kinedyne will notify owners of record and replace the subject combination winch bars free of charge. The safety recall began on december 15, 2010. Owners may contact kinedyne customer service at 1-800-848-6057.
Products named: Kinedyne Winch Bar (10032); Kinedyne Winch Bar (10033).
Report filed by KINEDYNE CORPORATION. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 15 Dec 2010.
07E099000Received 15 Nov 2007. 645 units.
Equipment
Defect, in the NHTSA record
Certain kinedyne winches, p/n 10203b, were sold to be installed as original equipment on trailers. These particular winches have a smaller, less weighted pawl than other similar winch designs, which use a larger pawl.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
The pawl works on a gravity based design which provides the force required to engage the pawl tooth into the sprocket. During the winch tensioning operation the pawl may not always properly lock the winch by positively engaging into the sprocket, thus exposing the operator to potential danger from the winch bar spring back.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Each vehicle manufacturer will file a defect report and remedy plan for their vehicles which included these winches as original equipment. Vehicles will be repaired at no cost to the owner. The recall is expected to begin during november/december 2007. Owners can contact either their vehicle manufacturer or kinedyne at 908-231-1800.

94E013000Received 20 May 1994. 3,182 units.
Unknown or Other
Defect, in the NHTSA record
The keeper springs (from the snap hooks) can become disengaged from the hook/keeper, allowing inadvertent release of the snap hook.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
This would not adequately restrain a wheel chair passenger in the event of a sudden stop or accident and could result in a personal injury.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
The defective hook will be replaced with a new design hook which will not allow the spring to escape from the hook. These hooks have been provided to distributors.
Products named: Kinedyne FE200595.
