What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Wabash National Corporation (Wabash) is recalling certain model year 2013 Van trailers manufactured September 20, 2013, to November 30, 2013, equipped with certain 2013 Pivot Bolts Part Number 93201070 manufactured by SAF-Holland. The affected pivot bolts are susceptible to cracking.

The risk

In the event that both sides of the pivot connection crack, it could cause a separation of the axle/suspension assembly from the trailer, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

The remedy

Wabash will notify owners, and dealers will replace the pivot bolts with new pivot bolts, free of charge. The recall began on February 9, 2015. Owners may contact Wabash at 1-888-396-6501.

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.
