2011 Multiquip TRLR220XFE & 2011 Multiquip TRLR220XFH recall: powertrain & transmission
⚠️ What's wrong
Multiquip is recalling certain model year 2011 dual axle trailers, models TRLR220XFH (EE46175 hydraulic brake axle) and TRLR220XFE (EE46176 electric brake axle), manufactured from march 1, 2011, through july 22, 2011. Due to an incorrect welding procedure, the welded assembly at the axle hub may have insufficient weld penetration.
💥 The risk
The axle could break while in use possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.
🔧 The fix
Multiquip notified all identified owners on august 3, 2011. The axle supplier, global direct components (gdc), will inspect and measure the weld and replace any axle outside of specification. Owners may contact gdc at 1-574-522-5300 or multiquip at 1-310-537-3700.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
