2027 Wabash VAN Trailer recall: body & structure
⚠️ What's wrong
Wabash National Corporation (Wabash) is recalling certain 2027 Wabash van trailers. The bumper tube bolts may have been improperly tightened, reducing the protection provided by the rear impact guard. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 223, "Rear Impact Guards."
💥 The risk
An improperly installed guard may not sufficiently protect a following vehicle, increasing the risk of injury during a rear end crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will tighten the bumper tube bolts, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 14, 2026. Owners may contact Wabash customer service at 1-765-771-5404.
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.)
