Summary
Sidump'r trailer is recalling 4 trailers equipped with arvinmeritor axle assemblies with suspect wheel end studs. The suspect wheel end studs were improperly tempered, potentially rendering them brittle and susceptible to fracture. If one wheel stud fractures, the remaining wheel studs are required to carry more load. If left in this condition, the remaining wheel studs may also fracture even if they are properly manufactured.
Consequence
Fractured wheel studs could result in a vehicle crash.
Remedy
Sidump'r is working with arvinmeritor who will replace the suspected studs free of charge (please see 08E038). Owners may contact arvinmeritor at 1-248-435-8793 or sidump'r at 1-402-582-4830.

Vehicles covered

As listed by NHTSA. A recall usually covers only some vehicles of each model and year, often a production date range.

Has your Sidump'r 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 Sidump'r dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
