The problem
Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC (Heartland) is recalling certain 2019 Heartland Pioneer and Prowler recreational trailers, built on D28H, D35, D40 or D44 trailer axles. The inner hub bearings may not have been sufficiently greased, which can cause the bearings to overheat and fail.
The risk
If the bearings overheat, the hub may fail, affecting handling and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Heartland will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and repair the hubs and bearings, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began December 7, 2018. Owners may contact Heartland customer service at 1-877-262-8032. Heartland's number for this recall is 99.01.42.
