Recall number 07V461000 · Recall details

Service brakes, air: antilockReported September 6, 2007 · 180 vehicles affected
What is wrong
On certain federal express (fed-ex) trucks equipped with haldex antilock brake system (ABS) electronic control unit (ecu) valves, the valves need to be modified in order to relocate the valves in an upright position. The valves contain a ball seat piston that may become dislodged during an ABS event and not perform properly.
Risk
Drivers would not be warned of a brake system failure increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Great dane is working with fed-ex to replace the ABS valves free of charge. Fed-ex has dead-lined these vehicles until the repair has been performed.

SuspensionReported October 25, 2005 · 650 vehicles affected
What is wrong
On certain van and refrigerated semi-trailers equipped with tuthill suspensions, model 20/22ar and rs3162, the beam/axle pivot connection joint is mis-aligned causing excessive play with the trailer allowing the trailer to wander.
Risk
Should the trailer wander a vehicle crash could occur without notice.
Remedy
Great dane is working with tuthill to notify the owners of the affected vehicles and provide free remedy. Owners may contact tuthill at 800‑753‑0025 or great dane at 912‑644‑2100.
