Defect Description
Fontaine Trailer Company, dba Fontaine Heavy-Haul, is recalling certain model year 2013 Renegade LX40 and LXT40 lowbed trailers manufactured between August 2012 and November 2012. The combo eye plate that connects the gooseneck portion of the trailer to the deck portion of the trailer may crack and ultimately fracture and thereby fail to maintain the load carrying capabilities as designed.
Consequence / Hazard
In the event of a combo eye plate crack and failure, the deck of the trailer could tilt and impact the highway, stopping the vehicle unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a crash.
Proposed Solution
Fontaine Heavy-Haul will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace any defective components free of charge. The recall began on March 11, 2013. Owners may contact Fontaine Heavy-Haul at 1-866-382-7278, option 2, ext. 819.
