The short version
Fontaine Trailer Company reported a problem with the structure. Here is what owners need to know.
In the affected trailers, the hardened washers used in the bolted connections that secure the upper coupler, landing gear and suspensions to the trailer sub-frame may crack.
Failure of the washers can cause the bolted joints to loosen, causing detachment of the trailer's structural components, increasing the risk of a crash.
Fontaine will notify owners, and dealers will replace the affected washers as well as the nuts and bolts used in the connections, free of charge.
