DEFECT #1 - SERVICE BRAKES, AIR
Posted on: 2017-10-04
Description
Trail king industries, inc. (trail king) is recalling certain 2018 fifth wheel live bottom trailers, model olb844ng-hh, manufactured with mpa/mta suspensions equipped with meritor ex225 brakes. The brake caliper bolts on these axles may not be properly torqued which can allow the caliper to detach from the mounting flange.
Consequence
If the caliper bolts are improperly torqued and the caliper detaches from the mounting flange, a loss of braking ability would occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
Corrective Action
Trail king has notified owners and will inspect the caliper bolts, replacing any loose or missing ones, free of charge. The recall began on october 13, 2017. Owners may contact trail king customer service at 1-800-843-3324.
Notes
Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov. DEFECT #2 - SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:DISC:CALIPER
