What's wrong

Consequence
A broken axle carrier can cause the axles and tires to fail, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Owners are advised not to use their trailer until the remedy has been completed. Dealers will install gussets and additional tubes, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 1, 2023. Owners may contact Lakota customer service at 1-574-848-1636.
