The problem

Great dane is recalling certain mpa20, mpa38, and mpa40 trailers equipped with arvin meritor suspension systems. The suspect systems may have missing welds at the interface of the lower seat bracket and axle beam.

The risk

Missing welds could allow the axle to roll out of position and potentially impact the handling of the trailer such that a driver may lose control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Great dane is working with arvin meritor to identify owners with the affect suspension systems. The affected vehicles will be repaired free of charge. The safety recall began on october 28, 2010. Owners may contact great dane at 1-912-644-2100 or arvin meritor at 1-248-435-0896.
