What was wrong
Defect
Dexter Axle Company (Dexter) is recalling certain D28H, D35, D40, and D44 trailer axles. The inner hub bearings may not have been sufficiently greased, which can cause the bearings to overheat and fail.
Risk
If the bearings overheat, the hub may fail, affecting handling and increasing the risk of a crash.
Manufacturer remedy
Dexter will notify owners, and dealers will remove the hubs, repack the bearings and reinstall the hubs, free of charge. The recall began November 9, 2018. Owners may contact Dexter customer service at 1-574-295-7888.
