Defect

Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 flatbed trailers. In the affected trailers, the brackets used to store aluminum J-hook cargo restraint plates may break and allowing the cargo restraint plates that are stored on the bracket to fall from the trailer.

Safety risk

If the bracket breaks, the falling restraint plates may become a road hazard for drivers of other vehicles, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Great Dane will notify owners, and dealers will replace the defective brackets with a newly designed bracket, free of charge. The recall began on April 17, 2014. Owners may contact Great Dane at 1-800-633-4176.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
