Defect

Big Tex Trailer Manufacturing, Inc. (Big Tex Trailer) is recalling certain 2024 25GN, 25PH, 3XGN, and 3XPH trailers. The oil seals may have been improperly installed, which can cause oil to leak onto the brake system.

Safety risk

Oil leaking onto brake components can reduce braking ability and increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect and replace the hub seals as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed May 24, 2024. Owners may contact Big Tex Trailer customer service at 1-800-594-5637.
