The defect

Delco Trailers LLC (Delco) is recalling certain 2021-2022 C-Series, D-Series, and F-Series trailers equipped with Besser Pro 7000 lbs. Tubular Straight Axle assemblies. The weld that joins the spindle and the main axle may have been improperly placed, which can cause cracking or separation of the axle from the spindle.

The risk

Cracking or separation of the axle and spindle can increase the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Dealers will inspect the axle serial numbers, and replace the axles as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on September 9, 2022. Owners may contact Delco's customer service at 1-903-739-9400.

What this page is, and what to do next

A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.

This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 22V564000.
