What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Pratt Intermodal Chassis (Pratt) is recalling certain 2022-2023 GN30402-EC-6P container chassis trailers. When the chassis is in the 20-foot configuration, the mid-beam of the chassis may bend or crack when fully loaded or when the 20-foot container is overloaded.

The risk

A cracked or bent mid-beam can result in load separation or complete failure of the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.

The remedy

The chassis mid-beam will be inspected for cracks and if no cracks are found, modified to be used in the 40-foot position. If cracks are found, the trailer cannot be used. Repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 30, 2023. Owners may contact Pratt customer service at 1-269-262-0933. Pratt's number for this recall is 2023-00001.

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.nhtsa.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.
