What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Wilson Trailer Company (Wilson) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Grain and Livestock trailers manufactured September 20, 2013, to July 18, 2014, and equipped with certain Pivot Bolts Part Number 93201070. The affected pivot bolts may experience an intergranular quench crack where the bolt head meets the body of the bolt.

The risk

Failure of the pivot bolts may cause the suspension and attached axle to separate from the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Wilson will notify owners, and dealers or authorized repair facilites will replace the pivot bolts, free of charge. The recall began in September 2014. Owners may contact Wilson customer service at 1-800-798-2002. Wilson's number for this recall is 926P.

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.

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.
