05- Suspension#2014286
2 units affected
On certain drilling fluid reclaimer trailers, welds normally applied to the suspension pivot bolts as a secondary means of securement may have been omitted at time of assembly. This could allow the bolts to loosen, which could result in partial axle separation, affecting vehicle handling and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Owners will be sent a field modification kit and instructions.
- Brakes#2013269
2 units affected
On certain drilling fluid reclaimer trailers, the brake hose may become damaged when raising and lowering the kingpin assembly. This could cause the air line to wear, potentially resulting in an air leak. Air leakage could result in partial loss of brake function, which could increase stopping distance. These issues could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, relocate the rear crossmember.
- Brakes#2013214
1 units affected
Certain drilling fluid reclaimer trailers fail to conform to the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 121 – Air Brake Systems. The brake booster valve may have been installed incorrectly during vehicle assembly. As such, the brake actuation timing slightly exceeds the allowable limit, which could result in less efficient braking performance. In the event of an emergency stop, the vehicle's stopping distance would be increased, which could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will correct the air brake booster valve installation.
- Brakes#2012295
1 units affected
On certain drilling fluid reclaimer trailers, the brake hose on the third axle (rear-most axle) may become damaged during suspension travel, which could result in a loss of air pressure to the air brakes. Rapid air loss would allow spring brake application, causing immediate brake lock-up. If this occurs while the vehicle is in motion, it could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install a repair kit which will relocate the third axle air brake hose.
- Brakes#2012208
1 units affected
On certain drilling fluid reclaimer trailers, during full suspension travel the S-camshaft could contact the frame, which could damage the brake system and result in a reduction or loss of braking capacity. This could increase stopping distances, possibly resulting in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Vermeer authorized facilities will repair the braking system and relocate brake components to avoid damage.
