- Summary
- Wabash National Corporation (Wabash) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Con-Gear Converter Dolly Trailers manufactured March 31, 2014, to August 6, 2015. In the affected trailers, the frame may crack on the counterbalance leg weld seam or the top plate.
- Consequence
- The cracks may progress and result in the counterbalance leg detaching while the trailer is being used, possibly causing the counterbalance leg to be a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Wabash will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the dolly for cracks, and add welds and weld plugs on the inboard side of the counterbalance legs. If welding will not resolve the issue than the dolly frame will be replaced. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on September 26, 2016. Owners may contact Wabash customer service at 1-765-771-5404. Wabash's number for this recall is LEG201603.

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