Recall campaignsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

The defect: Pratt Intermodal Chassis (Pratt) is recalling certain 2022-2023 GN30402-EC-6P container chassis trailers. When the chassis is in the 20-foot configuration, the mid-beam of the chassis may bend or crack when fully loaded or when the 20-foot container is overloaded.
The risk: A cracked or bent mid-beam can result in load separation or complete failure of the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
The remedy: The chassis mid-beam will be inspected for cracks and if no cracks are found, modified to be used in the 40-foot position. If cracks are found, the trailer cannot be used. Repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 30, 2023. Owners may contact Pratt customer service at 1-269-262-0933. Pratt's number for this recall is 2023-00001.

What a recall is

Safety recall
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
Safety investigation
NHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
Manufacturer communication
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.

RQ24007ClosedRecall Query

2022-2023 Pratt Container Chassis Trailers

Opened Apr 11, 2024
Closed Oct 27, 2025

On April 11, 2024, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened this Recall Query (RQ24007), to investigate certain GN30402-EC-6P chassis trailers experiencing mid-beam bending and cracking. The subject chassis trailers were produced by Pratt Industries LLC (Pratt) prior to the December 2021 sale of the company to Pratt Intermodal Chassis (PIC). Trailers produced by PIC are covered by recall 23V767. On April 26, 2024, ODI sent Information Request (IR) letters to Pratt Industries LLC and PIC. On April 29, 2024, Pratt Industries LLC responded to the IR letter informing ODI that the company had filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection on April 17, 2024, in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (Case No. 24-bk-10820). On June 6, 2024, PIC responded in full to the IR letter, and included the Asset Purchase Agreement between Pratt and PIC, which indicates that the Seller (Pratt Industries LLC) retains responsibility for the chassis trailers built prior to the December 2021 sale. Because the responsible manufacturer, Pratt Industries LLC, has ceased operations, ODI is closing this investigation. Owners of GN30402-EC-6P chassis trailers built prior to December 2021 should have their trailers professionally inspected. As a guide, inspection and remediation information can be found at https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2023/RCONL-23V767-7974.pdf. The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by NHTSA that a safety-related defect does or does not exist in these or any other Pratt Industries LLC chassis trailers. Additionally, the Agency notes that the Vehicle Safety Act, 49 U.S.C.A § 30120A states: “A manufacturer’s filing of a petition in bankruptcy under chapter 7 or chapter 11 of title 11 does not negate the manufacturer’s duty to comply with section 30112 or sections 30115 through 30120 of this title,” which include the recall provisions of the Act. The Agency reserves the right to take further action as warranted.
