These valves may have been improperly machined which may cause the parking brake chamber to fail while the trailer is parked.
Consequence
If the parking brake chamber fails while the trailer is parked, the trailer may roll away, increasing the risk of crash or injury.

Stoughton will contact owners and provide a remedy kit, complete with instructions, to repair any affected SR-5 trailer relay valves, free of charge. The recall began on July 26, 2016. Owners may contact Stoughton customer service at 1-608-873-2500.
