Defect. Pitts Enterprises, Inc. (Pitts) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 LT, LP and PT logging trailers manufactured January 1, 2014, to May 31, 2015. The affected trailers have a single point trunnion mount suspension which may develop cracks in the welds between the suspension and the frame.

Risk. If the welds crack, the suspension can shift or detach, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy. Pitts will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the suspension for cracks and repair the welds, free of charge. The recall began on May 6. 2016. Owners may contact Pitts customer service at 1-800-321-8073.

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.
