What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Lakota Corporation (Lakota) is recalling one model year 2016 Lakota Charger C39 trailer manufactured on March 24, 2015. In the affected trailer, the studs that are used to attach the wheels to the axle hubs may break.

The risk

If the wheel studs break, the wheel could detach from the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Lakota has notified the owner, and a dealer will replace any affected wheel hub, free of charge. Owners may contact Lakota customer service at 1-574-848-1636. Lakota's number for this recall is 160230.

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.
