What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Manac, Inc. (Manac) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Steel Platforms (10450A140), 2019 Transfer Trailer (36453C038), and 2019 Square Dump Trailer (41336B739). The steer arm bolts may break, allowing the steer arm to detach from the steering knuckle.

The risk

A detached steer arm may drag, increasing the risk of injury.

The remedy

Manac will notify owners, and Dexter dealers will weld the steering arm to the knuckle, free of charge. The recall began on June 17, 2021. Owners may contact Manac customer service at 1-800-361-7900.

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.
