ST Engineering Hackney, Inc. is recalling approximately 12 of its 2023-2024 Kidron Refrigerated Trailers because the wheel lug nuts may not have been tightened properly during manufacturing. This defect can lead to the wheel becoming loose or completely detached from the trailer while in motion. To fix this issue, the manufacturer will provide specific instructions to owners on how to inspect and properly tighten the lug nuts at no cost.
If the wheel lug nuts are not securely tightened, a wheel could vibrate loose or fall off the vehicle entirely, which significantly increases the risk of a crash or injury to other motorists.
