- Summary
- M. H. Eby recalled 1 my 2009 SM1GLP ground loader trailer equipped with arvinmeritor axle assemblies with suspect wheel end studs. The 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
- The customer has been notified by eby and arrangements are being made to repair the trailer.

Has your EBY 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 EBY dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
