Wabash National Corporation is recalling 40 of its 2024 DVDBHPC and DVCVHPC dry van trailers because the king pin—the critical connection point for the trailer—was not welded properly. This manufacturing defect can cause the king pin to detach from the upper coupler while in use. Dealers will replace the entire upper coupler assembly free of charge to resolve the safety issue.
If the king pin detaches, the trailer can become loose or move unintentionally, leading to a loss of trailer control. This significantly increases the risk of a vehicle crash.
Dealers will replace the upper coupler assembly free of charge.
