Details

What's wrong: The affected trailers may have been built with suspension bolts that can shear. These bolts connect the axle springs to the frame, and after they shear, the axle spring may detach from the frame hanger or "shackle".

Why it matters: A spring that detaches from the hanger may result in a loss of control of the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Grand design will notify owners, and dealers will replace the suspension bolts with ones that have a shorter thread depth, free of charge. The recall began in August 2014.
