Recall 11V215000: 2010–2011 Hyundai Translead Chassis, 2010–2011 Hyundai Translead Converter Dolly Trailer, 2010–2011 Hyundai Translead Refrigerated Trailers +1 more

The problem

Hyundai translead is recalling certain model year 2010-2011 dry freight van trailers, refrigerated trailers, container chassis new, remac and converter dollies manufactured from october 2010, through march 2011 and equipped with gunite automatic slack adjusters. Due to an incomplete "knitting" of the iron at the time of casting, inadequate structural integrity of the slack adjuster housing can occur, which could cause the housing to break at the handle under normal operating loads.

The risk

Slack adjusters with this flow notch could crack under normal braking conditions causing loss of braking which could result in a vehicle crash.

The fix

Hyundai translead will notify owners and dealers will replace the subject slack adjusters free of charge. The safety recall began on may 3, 2011. Owners may contact hyundai translead at 619-680-3144.
