What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

C&B Quality Trailer Works, Inc. (C&B Quality) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Horse Trailers manufactured from February 25, 2015, through September 15, 2015, and equipped with 3500lb-capacity torsion model axles. The weld that secures the torsion arm assembly may fail allowing the tire, wheel, hub, and torsion arm to separate from the trailer.

The risk

A separation of the torsion arm can result in a reduction in vehicle stability, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

C&B Quality will notify owners, and the axle manufacture will supply a replacement axle free of charge and cover the labor costs needed to replace it. The recall began on October 20, 2015. Owners may contact C&B Quality Trailer Works, Inc. at 1-208-455-2768.

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.
