Issue
Certain trailers may have been assembled without the "C-Channel" supporting the suspension brackets of the center axle. Without the support channel, forces that the suspension brackets apply to the frame rail could cause the frame rail to crack or the connection of the suspension brackets to the frame could crack. This could lead to loss of axle alignment and a loss of vehicle control and result in a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, install a "C-Channel on the front of the suspension bracket of the center axle. Any cracks found in the area of the frame brackets will be repaired.
