Recall 2012258

The issue

On certain units, the axle to frame mounting bolts were improperly tightened during assembly and could loosen. This could cause the axle to shift or become separated from the trailer chassis, resulting in poor vehicle handling characteristics or a loss of control increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace axle mounting hardware and tighten to specification.

Description (français)

Sur certaines unités, les boulons qui retiennent les essieux et le châssis ensemble ont été mal serrés lors du montage et pourraient se desserrer. Cela pourrait causer le déplacement de l'essieu ou son détachement du châssis de la remorque, ce qui rendrait mauvais le comportement routier du véhicule ou causerait une perte de contrôle augmentant les risques d'accident endommageant des biens matériels ou blessant quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le matériel de fixation des essieux et le serrer conformément aux spécifications.
