2008 Silver Eagle Hawk Dollies recalls
Recall 08V-188: Trailer Hitches
Problem: Silver eagle is recalling 133 my 2006-2008 hawk dollies cs and csa, tandem dollies ctl and cta, and falcon dollies csu models equipped with saf-holland simplex se or se II fifth wheels. The latch lever pivot bolt assembly may have been over-tightened which could distort the pivot bolt spacer sleeve. Corrosion or contaminates in the pivot may cause it to bind and prevent the fifth wheel jaw from latching securely around the trailer king pin.
Risk: There is a possibility that the fifth wheel may fail to latch without the driver's knowledge. When this occurs, the driver could drive away and the trailer could become disengaged increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Dealers will replace the pivot bolt and sleeve with a hex head shoulder bolt and washer. The recall began on april 29, 2008. Owners may contact silver eagle at 1-800-547-6792.
