Transport Canada recalls

Structure#2021648October 25, 2021
43 units affected
Issue: On certain trailers with rear sliding axles, the rear axle attachment points could crack. Specifically, small cracks may appear in the front corners of the slide pan where the suspension attaches. Over time, the cracks can grow and cause the suspension hanger to detach from the trailer. Safety Risk: A suspension hanger that detaches from the trailer could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Trail King will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your trailer to a dealer for an inspection and to add reinforcements between the suspension hanger and the slide pan. If any cracks are found, the cracks will be welded and repaired before adding the reinforcements.
Structure#2018516September 19, 2018
52 units affected
On certain trailers, the welded joint between the aluminum cross member and frame beam may be inadequate and could crack. If the weld cracks are not detected and allowed to propagate, other areas of the frame structure may also crack. This could eventually cause the suspension to loosen from the frame, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the trailers and replace the cross member with one of a different design.
