Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.
0
Safety recallsA 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.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

Jan 24, 2013
1,115 units potentially affected
The defect: Stoughton Trailers is recalling certain model year 2009-2011 AHV grain hauler/ag hopper trailers produced December 17, 2007, through October 28, 2010. These trailers may develop fatigue cracks in the lower rail of the frame structure and/or in the front attachment of the suspension subframe channels.
The risk: Structural cracks could eventually compromise the structure and lead to failure. This could result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy: Stoughton Trailers will notify owners and will replace the suspension subframe front attachments as well as the crossmember assembly forward of the front hopper, free of charge. The recall began on March 27, 2013. Owners may contact Stoughton Trailers at 1-608-873-2555.

RD-00056

EQUIPMENT; STRUCTURE

RD-00056 - The inspection and upgrade addresses a potential fastener edge distance issue with hopper side slope panel connection to the lower rail and the lateral cross members. A number of units have been found to have hopper side slope panels placed out of position (too low) in the manufacturing process such that the fasteners connecting the hopper side slope panels to the trailer structure may have inadequate edge distance on the hopper side slope panel. If this condition exists the hopper side slope panel connection may fail. The repair procedure is to first: inspect the hopper side slope panels fit to the lower rail using the gauge provided (SK-08892). If the hopper side slope panel is found to be out of position then additional fasteners are to be added as prescribed in the following remedy to re-establish the required joint strength. This document was sent with the Dealers Recall Letter for 16V050

They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
