2023 Great Dane Champion: Wheels recall
NHTSA campaign 23V230000 · 562 units potentially affected · filed Mar 31, 2023
What's wrong
Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain 2023 Champion Dry Van trailers. The wheel hubs may have an insufficient amount of lubrication, which could cause the hub bearings to fail.
Why it matters
Hub bearing failure could cause the wheel hub assembly to detach, causing a loss of stability and control, or create a road hazard, and increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the wheel hubs and add the proper amount of lubricant as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 19, 2023. Owners may contact Great Dane customer service at 1-877-369-3493.
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.
