2003 Kentucky Trailer recalls, newest first

October 19, 2004NHTSA 04V501000800 vehicles potentially affected

Service brakes, air

Summary: Certain trailers equipped with bendix brakes have experienced air leakage on the brake valve pipe nipple connecting the air reservoir. The pipe nipple starts to crack creating an air leak.
Consequence: If the air leaks faster than the tractor compressor can keep up, the emergency spring brake chambers will activate and stop the trailer increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect for the type of pipe nipple used and replace all pipe nipples as necessary. The recall began on October 6, 2004. Only united parcel service (ups) trucks are involved. Owners should contact kentucky trailer at 1-888-598-7245.

Service brakes, air › Antilock › ABS warning light

Summary: On certain van trailers equipped with bendix ec-30T electronic control units (ECU). If the trailer-mounted ABS warning lamp circuit experiences an electrical short and the short is not repaired, the high side power switch inside the ECU that controls the illumination of the trailer-mounted ABS warning lamp may eventually become thermally stressed and experience an electrical short.
Consequence: If the power switch shorts, it can result in an over-current condition in the ECU and lead to excessive heat, smoke, and possible fire.
Remedy: Bendix will provide a remedy kit and detailed instructions and also provide a labor allowance for the repair. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact bendix at 1-800-478-1793 or kentucky manufacturing at 1-502-637-2551.

Summary: On certain van type truck trailers (45') equipped with stemco "pro-torq" axle nut assemblies that were sold only to one customer, united parcel service, the keepers/lock rings were missing allowing the axle nut to come loose causing wheel oil to leak out.
Consequence: This could eventually allow the hub, drum, and wheel assembly to separate from the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Ups has inspected all 300 trailers and any trailer found to be missing the keeper/lock rings will be corrected.
