2001 FINN BB302 Recall

Campaign:

03V371000 on 10/19/2003

Component:

Suspension

Affected:

68

Defect:

On certain trailers, the axle units have a potential for an under-min radius on the axle spindle. an undercut situation or existence of a stress riser may also be present.

Consequence:

The presence of this condition can create a stress riser on the spindle arm causing it to fail at loads that it was otherwise designed to accommodate, resulting in separation of a wheel from the axle assembly.

Correction:

Dealers will install replacement axles. owner notification is expected to begin during october 2003. owners should contact finn at 1-800-543-7166.

Notes:

Customers can also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).
