NHTSA Campaign 18V184000

SUSPENSION:REAR:AXLE:NON-POWERED AXLE ASSEMBLY

Issued by MAXEY TRAILERS MFG, INC. · Reported Mar 21, 2018 · 251 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Maxey Trailers Mfg, Inc. (MaxxD) is recalling certain 2017-2018 A3X, A5X, and A6X trailers. The suspension arms on these vehicles may crack if they were installed without additional supporting welds around the suspension arm.

Consequence

If the suspension arm cracks, the trailer will not be able to handle the load, making the trailer inoperable. Additionally, the axle may come loose during travel, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

MaxxD will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the suspension arm and either add additional welds, or replace the suspension arm, free of charge. The recall began on May 4, 2018. Owners may contact MaxxD customer service at 1-903-784-8059.
