Doosan Portable Power recall: Service brakes
Do not drive. NHTSA and the maker advise owners not to drive these vehicles until they are repaired.
What is wrong
Doosan Portable Power (Doosan) is recalling certain 2019-2023 Portable Generator Trailers. The electric brake harness was connected to the battery disconnect switch instead of the positive distribution lug of the battery, deenergizing the brakes when the battery disconnect switch is in the off position.
What could happen
Deenergized brakes will not engage, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Owners will be instructed to immediately stop towing the affected trailers until repairs have been made. Dealers will correct the wiring, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 23, 2024. Owners may contact Doosan customer service at 1-800-633-5200. Doosan's number for this recall is 12-23-8.
