- The problem
- On certain pull trailers equipped with air ride suspensions, the integrity of the weld sequencing could potentially result in cracking at the rear of the suspension frame.
- The risk
- Such a crack, if left unattended could progress to an abrupt failure in the dolly frame. Failure to have the unit upgraded could result in a crash without prior warning.
- The fix
- Dealers will upgrade the welding which involves the addition of a steel bar to reinforce the frame structure. The recall began on february 16, 2006. Owners may contact heil at 1-800-400-6913, extension 353 or 574.
