What was wrong
Defect
Fontaine Trailer Company (Fontaine Trailer) is recalling certain 2025-2026 Fusion flatbed trailers. The main beams may have been contaminated with hydrogen during the galvanization process, causing the beams to crack.
Risk
A cracked beam may break, resulting in a loss of load support and increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
Manufacturer remedy
Owners are advised not to use their trailer until the remedy is completed. Fontaine Trailer will inspect and replace the trailers as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed May 11, 2026. Owners may contact Fontaine Trailer customer service at 1-800-821-6535, option 5.
