Transport Canada Recall - 2015046 - HEARTLAND
Brand(s)
Summary
Please see corrective actions section below
Affected products
2015 | HEARTLAND | BIG COUNTRY, 2015 | HEARTLAND | BIG HORN
Issue
On certain fifth wheel trailers, the axles may have been installed too far forward, which could affect weight distribution. Incorrectly distributed trailer weight could adversely affect vehicle stability and potentially cause an uncontrolled swaying motion, which could result in a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Heartland will either relocate the axles rearward, or install a ballast to the pin box and upgrade the axles to offset the increased ballast, depending on the model involved. Each trailer will also be weighed and tire, axle and cargo capacity labels bearing updated information will be applied.
