The product, in the report: Westendorf CS-151 Front end loader for tractor
Incident 1: November 23, 2018 Using new Westendorf front end loader in normal manner. Removable bucket safety latches failed. Loader bucket fell in operators lap, breaking femur bone. Operator required femur surgery.
Incident 2: July 2, 2019 Using same Westendorf front end loader. Loader is rated to lift 3000 pounds. Actual load = 2300 pounds. Loader king pins sheared on both sides, load fell to ground, and safety latches failed once again.
Incident 3: July 30, 2019 Using same Westendorf front end loader. Safety latches failed again, bucket fell off loader. I had previously added safety chains to prevent bucket from falling onto operator again.
Incident 1 was reported to Manufacturer. Unacceptable response from Manufacturer. Incident 2 reported to Manufacturer. Manufacturer provided replacement king pins. Operator still un recovered from previous indecent and unable to repair front end loader with parts supplied by Manufacturer.
This Westendorf front end loader, obviously, has multiple safety problems. (multiple safety latch failures and load capacity issues) Operator is fortunate that one or more of above incidents has not resulted in death.
