Summary

Lippert is recalling 675 Curt Helux Pin Boxes (part numbers 2024032921, 2024032924, 2024032925, and 2024113005) that were installed on Lippert 5W Chassis used in recreational vehicles. The fasteners used to secure the pin box were improperly tightened during manufacturing and may loosen over time. Lippert will coordinate with vehicle manufacturers to tighten these fasteners to the correct specifications at no cost to owners.

Risk

The improperly tightened fasteners can vibrate loose and fall out, which can cause the towed vehicle to completely detach from the pin box while in motion, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your vehicle's pin box for part numbers 2024032921, 2024032924, 2024032925, or 2024113005 to determine if your unit is affected.
  2. Lippert will work with the vehicle manufacturers to tighten the fasteners, free of charge.
  3. Contact Lippert customer service at 1-574-538-4514 for assistance or to find out which vehicle manufacturers are coordinating repairs.
  4. Vehicle manufacturers will notify their affected owners; however, you should proactively contact your dealer if you believe your chassis is part of this recall.
  5. For additional questions or to report concerns, contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
