Suspension:rear:axle:non-powered axle assembly
Problem: Jayco, Inc. (Jayco) is recalling certain 2013-2015 Fifth Wheel Seismic and 2015 Pinnacle trailers. The trailers were built with 6,000lb capacity axles instead of 7,000lb axles as intended.
Risk: The underrated axles may result in the trailer being overloaded, possibly causing the operator to lose control of vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
