2017 Manac Van Trailer recalls
Recall 17V-157: Structure
Problem: Manac Inc. (Manac) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Van Trailers. The aluminum rivets that secure the external rub rails may fail, allowing the rub rails to detach.
Risk: If the rub rail detaches, it may become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
Fix: Manac will notify owners and dealers will replace the aluminum rivets with stainless steel rivets, free of charge. The recall began on May 1, 2017. Owners may contact Manac customer service at 1-418-228-2018.

These trailers are equipped with certain Bendix SR5 spring brake valves which may have been improperly machined which could cause a delay of application of the spring brakes while parking.
