What's wrong
PJ Trailers is recalling certain 2022-2024 LD, LY, LX, LS, CC, DD, TJ, and TS trailers equipped with a Demco EZ Latch Gooseneck Coupler. The coupler mounting bolts may loosen and cause the coupler to separate from the inner tube.
Consequence
A coupler that separates can allow the trailer to disconnect from the tow vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the couplers, free of charge. Owner notification letter were mailed June 15, 2023. Owners may contact PJ Trailers customer service at 1-866-752-8781.
