Hyundai Translead recall: Structure
What is wrong
Hyundai Translead is recalling certain 2017-2018 Duralite HT Flatbed trailers with bulkheads. The brackets on the sill may break away from the flatbed, possibly resulting in the bulkhead detaching from the trailer.
What could happen
If the bulkhead brackets fail, the bulkhead can fall off of the trailer and become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Hyundai Translead will notify owners, and dealers will reinforce the front area of the flatbed, free of charge. The recall began September 24, 2019. Owners may contact Hyundai Translead customer service at 1-800-251-0871. Hyundai Translead's number for this recall is 801440.
