The problem

Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain 2018 Everest SS refrigerated trailers. A plug for the front brake chamber service port may not have been properly tightened, possibly reducing the service brake pressure.

The risk

A reduction of service brake pressure can lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Great Dane will tighten the diagnostic tee pipe plug or remove the tee. The recall began on April 28, 2017. Owners may contact Great Dane customer service at 1-912-232-4471.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
