Plain-English summary
Wilson Trailer Company is recalling certain model year 2015 DWH-550 and CD-1080 trailers manufactured on November 20, 2015. These vehicles are equipped with certain Bendix SR5 spring brake valves that may have been improperly machined. This defect may cause a delay in the application of the spring brakes while the trailer is parked.
If the spring brakes are delayed in application, the trailer may roll away after it has decoupled from the tractor. This condition increases the risk of a crash or injury.
Wilson will contact owners to provide a remedy kit, complete with instructions, to repair any affected SR-5 trailer relay valves free of charge. Wilson issued an interim notification to owners on August 18, 2016, and the recall began on August 26, 2016. Owners may contact Wilson Customer Service Department at 1-800-798-2002. Wilson's number for this recall is 132P.
