Hendrickson Vantraax: Service Brakes, Air recall
NHTSA campaign 22E102000 · 12 units potentially affected · filed Dec 29, 2022
What's wrong
Hendrickson USA, L.L.C. (Hendrickson) is recalling certain Vantraax trailer slider suspension and axle assemblies with part number VANTRAAX.34502, equipped with Haldex Brake ModulT Gen II Air Disc Brakes. The retaining clip in the brake pad retaining assembly may be loose or could detach, loosening the brake pad.
Why it matters
A retaining clip or bracket that detaches can damage the brake pad, reducing brake performance, damage a tire valve, causing a flat tire, or become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
All affected VanTraxx assemblies have been inspected and repaired as necessary and therefore no owner notification letters will be sent. The affected vehicle manufacturer was notified on September 23, 2022. Owners may contact Hendrickson customer service at 1-630-773-911.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
