18V567000

Date: 2018-08-28. Systems: WHEELS.

Defect: MAC Trailer Mfg., Inc. (MAC) is recalling certain 2019 Dump and Waste trailers. The wheel end nut locking device on these trailers may not be properly installed, allowing the wheel end to separate from the axle.

Consequence: If the wheel end separates from the axle, it can increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy: MAC will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the locking nut to ensure that it is properly installed, correcting it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began September 25, 2018. Owners may contact MAC customer service at 1-800-795-8454. MAC's number for this recall is 10-70-001 2018.

Do not drive: No. Park outside: No.

Notes on this record

  • Complaints from the API and bulk file are merged and deduplicated by ODI number; the API alone misses records.
  • System and subsystem counts are numbers of distinct complaints, recalls or communications that name them. One record can name several systems, so shares across systems can add to more than 100 percent; a single share never exceeds 100 percent.
  • Recalls are counted once per campaign, investigations once per action and manufacturer communications once per NHTSA id, even when NHTSA lists several model names for the same record.
  • A sales denominator is a calendar-year proxy, not the population of vehicles still in use. Rates are copied from verified pipeline output.
