Vanguard recall: Suspension
What is wrong
Vanguard National Trailer Corporation (Vanguard) is recalling certain model year 2014 VIP and VXP trailers manufactured October 10, 2013, to April 24, 2014, and equipped with certain SAF-Holland-brand CBX Trailer Suspension Air Ride Axle Systems. The affected trailer suspensions have pivot bolts that may fail.
What could happen
Failure of the pivot bolts may cause the suspension and attached axle to separate from the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Vanguard will notify owners, and SAF-Holland-approved repair shops will replace the defective pivot bolts with new pivot bolts, free of charge. The recall began in September 2014. Owners may contact Vanguard customer service at 1-888-253-3008, or SAF-Holland customer service at 1-888-396-6501. Vanguard's number for this recall is 14E024.
