Reported Aug 25, 20211 vehicles affectedSUMMIT TRAILER SALES, INC.
The defect
Summit Trailer Sales, Inc. (Summit Trailer) is recalling one 2017 AD45 trailer equipped with Dexter Ingersoll Smart-Steer self-steer axles. The steering arm may detach from the steering knuckle during certain low-speed, high-side loading maneuvers.
The risk
A detached steering arm may cause a loss of steering control. In addition, attachment hardware may fall and become a road hazard. Both of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.
The remedy
A dealer will inspect the steering arm and apply welds, free of charge. Owners may contact Summit Trailer's customer service at 1-570-754-3511.
