Virnig Manufacturing Inc. is recalling 10 of its 2025 TR-HDD-1414 and TR-RHDD-1409 trailers because the bearing lock nuts may have been improperly installed. This defect can cause the bearing nuts to fail, potentially leading to a tire detaching from the trailer while in motion. Authorized dealers will inspect and replace the bearing lock nuts free of charge; according to the manufacturer, all affected trailers were already repaired by October 28, 2025.
If a bearing lock nut fails, the tire can detach from the trailer, which significantly increases the risk of a crash. Because this poses a critical safety risk, owners should not drive the vehicle until they have confirmed the repair has been completed.
