What this recall means for you
Certain container chassis have wheel lug nuts that were not tightened properly. If the lug nuts are loose, a wheel can come off while the vehicle is in use, which raises the risk of a crash.
The manufacturer will inspect the lug nuts and tighten them as needed at no cost to the owner. Owners who have questions can contact Stoughton customer service at 1-608-873-2580. Owner notification letters were mailed on July 19, 2023. Check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls, and have the wheel lug nuts inspected at an authorized dealer if you have not already done so.
