What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Plain-English summary

C&B Quality Trailer Works, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Horse Trailers manufactured between February 25, 2015, and September 15, 2015. The recall affects 79 units equipped with 3500lb-capacity torsion model axles.

The defect involves a weld that secures the torsion arm assembly, which may fail. If this occurs, the tire, wheel, hub, and torsion arm can separate from the trailer. This separation can reduce vehicle stability and increase the risk of a crash.

C&B Quality will notify owners, and the axle manufacturer will supply a replacement axle free of charge, covering labor costs. The recall began on October 20, 2015. Owners may contact C&B Quality Trailer Works, Inc. at 1-208-455-2768 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
