Campaign Details

Component: SUSPENSION:REAR:AXLE:NON-POWERED AXLE ASSEMBLY

Defect Description

Charmac Trailers Inc. (Charmac) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Horse and Cargo trailers manufactured March 16, 2015, to September 25, 2015, and equipped with certain 3500lb-capacity torsion model axles. The weld that secures the torsion arm assembly may fail allowing the tire, wheel, hub, and torsion arm to separate from the trailer.

Consequence / Hazard

A separation of the torsion arm can result in a loss of trailer stability and control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Proposed Solution

Charmac will notify owners, and dealers will replace the suspect axles, free of charge. The recall began on January 28, 2016. Owners may contact Charmac customer service at 1-208-733-5241.
