What's wrong

Big Tex Trailer Manufacturing, Inc. (Big Tex Trailer) is recalling certain 2022 50SR and 70SR trailers. The coupler was improperly welded, which may cause the trailer to separate from the tow vehicle.

The risk

Trailer separation from a tow vehicle can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will inspect and replace the coupler as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 1, 2022. Owners may contact Big Tex Trailer's customer service at 1-800-594-5637.

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.
