Lode-King Industries, Ltd. is recalling approximately 38 steel step deck semi-trailers from the 2016-2023 model years. Affected models include Lode King and Prestige SDE and SDF trailers equipped with a beavertail style ramp. These trailers may have been manufactured with missing welds on the cargo securement winches located at the rear of the trailer, which can cause the winch mount to fail. Owners can have the missing welds added by a dealer free of charge.
If the cargo winch mount fails, the cargo it is securing can fall off the trailer and onto the road. This creates an immediate hazard for other drivers, significantly increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
Dealers will add the missing weld on the end of the winch frame.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
