Defect Description
Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain model year 2016 Dry Freight and Converter Dollies trailers manufactured June 19, 2015, to September 22, 2015. During production, the axle nut retaining clips may not have been properly seated or may have been omitted from the axle assemblies.
Consequence
Without a properly seated axle nut retaining clip, the wheel nut may loosen resulting in excessive wheel end play and a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Great Dane will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles to verify that the axle nut retaining clips are properly installed, correcting them as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on October 27, 2015. Owners may contact Great Dane customer service at 1-877-369-3493.
