Manufacturer Hyundai Translead
Components SUSPENSION, SERVICE BRAKES, AIR
Potential Number of Units Affected 259
Caliper Bolts Improperly Torqued
If the caliper bolts are improperly torqued and the caliper detaches from the mounting flange, a loss of braking ability would occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
Summary
Hyundai Translead is recalling certain 2017 Hyundai Translead Composite trailers, model number 30012130, and HyCube trailers model numbers 30012400, 30012409, 30012410, 30012431, 30012434, 30012481, and 30012595.
