Issue
On certain semi-trailers, the lower side rail (a critical structural member that carries the trailer and cargo loads) could develop fatigue cracks and fail. This could allow the trailer to collapse, which could result in a loss of vehicle control and a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace two structural crossmembers.
