Recall 16V-476: Parking Brake

Reported Jun 28, 2016 · 13,509 vehicles affected · Great Dane Trailers

Problem: Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain model year 2015-2017 Dry Freight Van, Reefer, and Flatbed trailers manufactured January 1, 2014, to March 4, 2016, equipped with certain Bendix SR5 spring brake valves.
