Recall 25V560000 · manufacturer campaign Wabco Lift Axle

Service Brakes, Air › Antilock › Control Unit/module — Fontaine · reported 29 Aug 2025 · 35 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

Fontaine Trailer Company (Fontaine Trailer) is recalling certain 2025-2026 Fontaine HCIFL12SAT and HCIFL82CTA forklift trailers. The auto lift axle cables may not be installed in the correct ports, which can disable the anti-lock brake system. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 121, "Air Brake Systems."

The risk

Driving without a functioning anti-lock brake system may result in the trailer not braking as intended, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Fontaine Trailer will rewire the cable connections, free of charge. Owners may contact Fontaine Trailer customer service at 1-800-821-6535, option 5.
