What happened

Fontaine Heavy-Haul is recalling certain 2015 Magnitude 100 lowbed trailers manufactured between January 2014 and June 2014. The front bogie axle weldment, rear bogie axle structure, and rear bogie attachment lugs on these trailers may not have received an adequate number of welds, which could cause these components to separate from the main structure and increase the risk of a crash.

Fontaine will notify owners of affected trailers and ship them back to Fontaine for repair at no charge. The recall began in July 2014. Owners of affected trailers should contact Fontaine Heavy-Haul at 1-205-467-6171.
