NHTSA's recall notice

As NHTSA's recall record states it for campaign 21V943000.

Defect description

Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain 2022 Champion dry van and Everest refrigerated trailers. The wheel hubs may have an insufficient amount of lubrication, which could cause the hub bearings to fail.

Safety consequence

Hub bearing failure could cause the wheel hub assembly to detach, causing a loss of stability and control, creating a road hazard, and increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Great Dane will work with SAF Holland, the wheel hub supplier, to inspect the wheel hubs and add the proper amount of lubricant as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 25, 2022. Owners may contact Great Dane customer service at 1-877-369-3493.

Notes

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.
