Bowlus Road Chief LLC is recalling approximately 57 trailers from the 2022-2025 model years, including certain Endless Highways, Volterra, Terra Firma, and Rivet models equipped with an elongated hitch. The owner's manual for these trailers is missing critical instructions for retightening the hitch bolts as part of the regular maintenance schedule. Bowlus will provide a supplement to the owner's manual, and dealers will inspect, replace, and tighten the hitch bolts as necessary for free.
Without regular maintenance and tightening, the hitch bolts can loosen over time. This can cause the top and bottom of the hitch to separate, creating a significant road hazard and increasing the risk of a crash while towing.
You have 2 options:
Owner's manual supplement
Dealer inspection and bolt tightening
Recall covers 2022-2023 and 2025 model years.
