The problem
Vanguard National Trailer Corporation (Vanguard) is recalling two 2022 VIP 53 ft. trailers. The wheel hubs may have an insufficient amount of lubrication, which could cause the hub bearings to fail.
The risk
Hub bearing failure could cause the wheel hub assembly to detach, causing a loss of stability and control, or create a road hazard, and increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the wheel hubs and add the proper amount of lubricant as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 19, 2022. Owners may contact Vanguard's customer service at 1-219-253-2000.
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.nhtsa.gov.
