- The problem
- PJ Trailers is recalling certain 2020-2021 DE trailers. The attachment bolts of the hydraulic cylinder may fail if the hydraulic system is used to lower the dump box once the dump box is already in the fully lowered position.
- The risk
- Use of the dump box after the attachment bolts fail may result in a sudden drop of the box as it is being raised, increasing the risk of injury.
- The fix
- PJ Trailers will notify owners, and dealers will replace the hydraulic power unit and the attachment bolts, free of charge. The recall began October 2, 2020. Owners may contact PJ Trailers customer service at 1-866-752-8781.
