Trailer leaf spring shackles were not installed properly at the factory. Made dealer aware of the situation and they have repaired the shackles by cutting them off and re-welding them to their proper position. My concern is they have a whole fleet of these trailers on their lot with the same problem. This causes the bed of the trailer to almost set on the axle with no load. This can cause the bed of the trailer to set on the axle and impinge on the wheels causing a blowout.

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.
