NHTSA Campaign 17V615000
SERVICE BRAKES, AIR
Issued by Great Dane Trailers · Reported Oct 3, 2017 · 90 vehicles affected
What's wrong
Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain 2018 Everest trailers manufactured with MPA/MTA suspensions equipped with Meritor EX225 brakes. The brake caliper bolts on these axles may not be properly torqued which can allow the caliper to detach from the mounting flange.
Consequence
If the caliper bolts are improperly torqued and the caliper detaches from the mounting flange, a loss of braking ability would occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Great Dane will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the caliper mounting bolts, replacing any loose or missing ones, free of charge. The recall began on December 1, 2017. Owners may contact Great Dane customer service at 1-877-369-3493.
