Hyundai Translead (HT) is recalling certain model year 2004-2016 Dry Van, Reefer Van, Chassis, and Container trailers manufactured January 4, 2004, to March 4, 2016. These trailers are equipped with certain Bendix SR5 spring brake valves which may have been improperly machined which could cause a delay of application of the spring brakes while parking.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If there is a delay of the spring brake application, the trailer may roll away after it has decoupled from the tractor, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
Remedy: The remedy for this recall is still under development. The recall began on August 4, 2016. Owners may contact HT customer service at 1-819-574-1500. HT's number for this recall is 16E-045.
