Recall 14V-726: 2014–2016 Wabash National Van

The problem
Wabash National Corporation (Wabash) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 Van Trailers manufactured December 17, 2013, to January 23, 2015, equipped with a Haldex air braking system. The affected brake actuators may have been manufactured with an incomplete attachment of the internal rubber diaphragm to the actuation mechanism. This could cause dragging or overheated brakes.
The risk
If the brakes begin to drag and overheat it can cause the brakes to smoke, increasing the risk of a vehicle fire and crash.
The fix
Wabash will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake actuator, free of charge. The recall began on June 18, 2015. Owners may contact Wabash customer service at 1-765-771-5300.
