Has your Fontaine been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Fontaine dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

Remedy
Fontaine Heavy-Haul will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace any defective components free of charge. The recall began on March 11, 2013. Owners may contact Fontaine Heavy-Haul at 1-866-382-7278, option 2, ext. 819.
