Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect where axle separation could occur, which aligns with the rubric criteria for a Severe rating.
Plain-English summary
Innovative Trailer Design Industries is recalling one model year 2014 V40TAN49 van trailer manufactured between October 15, 2013, and December 30, 2013. The recall addresses a defect in the SAF-Holland Pivot Bolt (Part Number 93201070) equipped on these trailers.
The pivot bolt may have a quench crack where the bolt head meets the body of the bolt. This condition makes the bolt susceptible to cracking and fracturing. If both sides of the pivot connection fracture, the axle assembly could separate from the trailer, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Innovative will notify owners, and dealers will replace the old pivot bolts with new pivot bolts free of charge. The recall began on December 30, 2014. Owners may contact Innovative customer service at 1-905-670-7755 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
