- Manufactured:
- 03/19/1996 - 06/03/2002
- Affected:

- Defect:
- On certain tag and pusher axle assemblies purchased from ridewell, the axle assemblies have an actual weight rating less than that specified on the label and therefore fail to comply with the requirements of part 567.5, "certification."

- Loading the tag/pusher axle to the gawr label rating or loading the vehicle to the gvwr label rating will cause the pusher/tag axle to be overloaded.
- Correction:
- Crane will provide owners with replacement vehicle certification labels and installation instructions. owner notification began october 4, 2002. owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact crane at 1-918-832-7333.

- Component:
- Service brakes, air:slack adjusters:automatic
- Manufactured:
- 06/15/2000 - 04/27/2003
- Affected:
- 130
- Defect:
- On certain trailers equipped with a specific combination of reyco suspension, eaton drive axle, and bendix slack adjusters, the failure of a drive axle slack adjuster to automatically adjust as required to compensate for brake wear, will cause an out of adjustment condition. if this condition occurs and is not identified and corrected through normal inspections and maintenance, the slack adjuster will over-rotate and may contact the suspension lower spring saddle.
- Consequence:
- If this occurs, braking performance will be inhibited, increasing the risk of a crash without warning.
- Correction:
- Crane carrier will supply, at no charge, gunite slack adjusters and installation instructions to replace the existing bendix slack adjusters on the drive axle. the installing facility will be reimbursed by crane for one (1) hour labor per vehicle at their posted labor rate. owner notification began on june 10, 2003. owners should contact crane at 1-918-832-7305.
- 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).
