2019–2024 Lode King AHV45-3, Lode King Prestige: Service Brakes, Air recall
NHTSA campaign 24V021000 · 6 units potentially affected · filed Jan 18, 2024
What's wrong
Lode-King Industries, Ltd (Lode-King) is recalling certain 2019, 2021-2023 Lode King AHV45-3 and 2024 Prestige AHV50-3 trailers equipped with a 2S2M or 4S2M ABS system. The anti-lock brake system (ABS) computer may have reversed sensor connections. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
Why it matters
In the event of a wheel-lockup, the ABS computer may activate the air brakes on the opposite side of the trailer, reducing braking effectiveness and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will correct the ABS computer connections, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 05, 2024. Owners may contact Lode-King customer service at 1-204-325-4345 or 1-866-797-0669 (toll free).
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.
