Defect. ON CERTAIN TRAILERS EQUIPPED WITH A SPECIFIC COMBINATION OF REYCO SUSPENSION, EATON DRIVE AXLE, AND BENDIX SLACK ADJUSTERS, THE FAILURE OF A DRIVE AXLE SLACK ADJUSTER TO AUTOMATICALLY ADJUST AS REQUIRED TO COMPENSATE FOR BRAKE WEAR, WILL CAUSE AN OUT OF ADJUSTMENT CONDITION. IF THIS CONDITION OCCURS AND IS NOT IDENTIFIED AND CORRECTED THROUGH NORMAL INSPECTIONS AND MAINTENANCE, THE SLACK ADJUSTER WILL OVER-ROTATE AND MAY CONTACT THE SUSPENSION LOWER SPRING SADDLE.

Risk. IF THIS OCCURS, BRAKING PERFORMANCE WILL BE INHIBITED, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING.

Remedy. CRANE CARRIER WILL SUPPLY, AT NO CHARGE, GUNITE SLACK ADJUSTERS AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS TO REPLACE THE EXISTING BENDIX SLACK ADJUSTERS ON THE DRIVE AXLE. THE INSTALLING FACILITY WILL BE REIMBURSED BY CRANE FOR ONE (1) HOUR LABOR PER VEHICLE AT THEIR POSTED LABOR RATE. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON JUNE 10, 2003. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT CRANE AT 1-918-832-7305.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
