Great Dane recall: Service brakes, air
What is wrong
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.
What could happen
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.
