TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HAULMARK 4X6 ENCLOSED TRAILER TOWED BY A 2002 DODGE RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE CLEVIS PIN AND A COTTER PIN FROM THE TRAILER TONGUE DETACHED CAUSING THE TRAILER TO ROLL AWAY.

I PURCHASED THE 2014 HAULMARK 20' ENCLOSED TRAILER FROM A COMPANY CALLED THE TRAILER FACTORY OUTLET IN BEAUMONT CA. HAULMARK IS MADE BY UTC-CARGO GROUP LOCATED IN OGDEN UT. WITH APPROXIMATELY 1100 MILES PUT ON THE TRAILER, ABOUT TWO-MONTHS, I'D NOTICED A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF UNEVEN TIRE TREAD WEAR. UPON HAVING THE TRAILER INSPECTED BY THE TRAILER FACTORY OUTLET; IT WAS DISCOVERED THE ENTIRE AXLE MOUNTING BRACKETS WERE OUT OF ALIGNMENT, CAUSING THE TRAILER'S AXLES TO BE OUT OF ALIGNMENT. THE ACTUAL COMPANY UTC-CARGO GROUP, GOT INVOLVED AND TOOK POSSESSION OF SAID TRAILER TO HAVE IT TAKEN TO THEIR UTAH MANUFACTURING PLANT FOR INSPECTION AND REPAIRS. THEY CONFIRMED THE TRAILER'S AXLE "HANGERS" WERE OUT OF ALIGNMENT. THEY CUT OFF AND RE-WELDED THE HANGERS. DELIVERED THE TRAILER BACK TO ME. I DID A SIMPLE ALIGNMENT INSPECT TO FIND THE AXLES ARE STILL OUT OF ALIGNMENT AND THAT ONE TRAILER'S TIRE IS ACTUALLY TWEAKED OUT OF ALIGNMENT. THE FACTORY LACKS COMPLETE QUALITY CONTROL. THE ALIGNMENT ISSUE CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY TO OTHERS BY POSSIBLE TIRE BLOW-OUTS AND TRAILER SWAY--CAUSING UNCONTROLLABLE MOVEMENT.OF THE TRAILER AND TOW VEHICLE. *TR
2 of 2 complaints, reproduced as filed.
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.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
