What's wrong
Inland Empire Trailers (Inland Empire) is recalling all 2021 Inland Empire (IE) trailers. The spindle nuts on the axles may have been improperly tightened during assembly.
The risk
Improperly tightened spindle nuts may cause excessive axle vibration and overheat the bearings, affecting vehicle control, and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Inland Empire will inspect the spindle nuts and bearings, tighten the spindle nuts and replace the bearings as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed Feb. 21, 2022. Owners may contact Inland Empire at 1-909-999-5422.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
