What this recall means for you
Certain 2023 trailers may have been fitted with an axle that is too small for the trailer's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). The axle can become overloaded, which may cause it to break while the trailer is in use.
An axle failure can lead to loss of control of the trailer and increases the risk of a crash. Owners should stop hauling heavy loads on an affected trailer until the axle has been checked.
The replacement axle is free of charge at an authorized dealer, who will install the correct part. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on December 2, 2022. You can also call the manufacturer's customer service at 1-580-795-5536 or check your trailer's VIN for open recalls.
