Summary

Strick Trailers, LLC "Strick" is recalling certain model year 2014 Van Trailers manufactured November 12, 2013, to December 9, 2013, and equipped with SAF-Holland-brand CBX Trailer Suspension Air Ride Axle Systems.

Consequence

Failure of the pivot bolts may cause the suspension and attached axle to separate from the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Strick has notified the owners, and SAF-Holland has arranged for delivery of one repair kit per axle free of charge. SAF-Holland will reimburse the owner for the labor required to install the repair kits. The recall began September 17, 2015.
