Karavan recall: Suspension
What is wrong
Karavan Trailers Inc (Karavan) is recalling certain model year 2016 KPSD trailers manufactured September 29, 2015, to March 29, 2016. The axle spindle flange on the affected trailers may bend and result in abnormal tire camber, causing excessive wear on the tires.
What could happen
Excessive wear may result in tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Karavan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the axle assembly, free of charge. The recall began on June 3, 2016. Owners may contact Karavan customer service at 1-920-928-6200.
