2023 Great Dane Champion recall: wheels
⚠️ What's wrong
Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain 2023 Champion Dry Van trailers. The wheel hubs may have an insufficient amount of lubrication, which could cause the hub bearings to fail.
💥 The risk
Hub bearing failure could cause the wheel hub assembly to detach, causing a loss of stability and control, or create a road hazard, and increase the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect the wheel hubs and add the proper amount of lubricant as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 19, 2023. Owners may contact Great Dane customer service at 1-877-369-3493.
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.)
