Tires: temporary/emergency spare tire
- What is wrong
- Big Tex Trailer Manufacturing, Inc. (Big Tex Trailer) is recalling certain 2003-2022 16GN trailers. The spare tire mount allows the spare tire to vibrate, which can cause the joint between the spare tire mount and the trailer to fatigue and eventually fail.
- Risk
- Spare tire mount failure can allow the spare tire to detach from the trailer and become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers will relocate and reinforce the spare tire mount, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on September 9, 2022. Owners may contact Big Tex Trailer's customer service at 1‑800‑594‑5637.
