What's wrong

The risk

If the brakes drag on the converter dolly, the wheel end may overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.

Silver Eagle will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake valve, free of charge. The recall began on July 8, 2015. Owners may contact Silver Eagle customer service at 1-800-547-6792.
