Diamond C Trailer MFG. is recalling approximately 2,523 FMAX, SDX, and PX trailers from the 2023-2024 model years that are equipped with a spare tire winch. The winch system used to secure the spare tire to the trailer frame can loosen or fail completely over time. If the winch fails, the spare tire can detach from the trailer while in motion, creating a serious hazard for other drivers and increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will install a secondary retention device, consisting of a steel bar and latch, at no cost to owners.
The winch system may fail to maintain tension, allowing the spare tire to fall off the trailer and into the path of following vehicles, potentially causing a collision.
Free installation of a secondary retention device
