The short version

Fontaine Trailer Company reported a problem with the structure frame and members. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The affected trailers have welds that may crack where the structural support member attaches to the frame hanger.

WHY IT MATTERS

If the welds crack, the structural member may also crack and the structural support member may separate from the frame hanger resulting in a failure of the slider box, which could increase the risk of a crash.

WHAT TO DO

Fontaine will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the trailers and repair any cracks, as necessary, free of charge.
