Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Cheetah Chassis Corporation is recalling certain trailers from model years 2014-2016, including Tandem Axle Extendable Chassis, Tandem Axle and Single Axle Straight Frame Chassis, Tandem Axle Gooseneck Chassis, Tandem Axle Flatbed, Tridem Axle Bridgemaster Chassis, and Tandem Axle Curtain side Flatbed trailers. These trailers are equipped with Bendix SR5 spring brake valves that may have been improperly machined, which could delay the application of the spring brakes during parking. This defect creates a risk that the trailer may roll away after being decoupled from the tractor, potentially causing a crash or injury.
Cheetah will contact owners and provide a remedy kit at no charge, complete with instructions to repair affected SR-5 trailer relay valves. The recall began on August 22, 2016. Owners of affected trailers should contact Cheetah Customer Service Department at 1-570-752-2709.
