LBC Manufacturing "LCB" is recalling certain 2017-2018 Pitbull roll-off trailers, model numbers PB47 and PB40, manufactured with MPA/MTA suspensions equipped with Meritor EX225 brakes. The brake caliper bolts on these axles may not be properly torqued which can allow the caliper to detach from the mounting flange.
If the caliper bolts are improperly torqued and the caliper detaches from the mounting flange, a loss of braking ability would occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
LCB has notified owners, and dealers will inspect the bolts, replacing any loose or missing ones, free of charge. The recall began October 17, 2017. Owners may contact LCB customer service at 1-734-442-6202. LCB's number for this recall is 001PB.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.safercar.gov.
