The short version
Conel, LLC dba McElrath Trailers reported a problem with the structure frame and members. Here is what owners need to know.
The frame on the trailers may deform at the transition of straight and angled lateral portions, possibly resulting in the trailer neck separating from the rear portion of the trailer.
If the trailer neck separates from the rear of the trailer there would be an increased risk of a crash.
Take it to a dealer — they will add bracing to the trailer to reduce deflection in the side rails and tongue area, free of charge.
