What can happen

Safety consequence

A PARTIALLY COUPLED FIFTH WHEEL MAY RESULT IN A TRAILER UNEXPECTEDLY SEPARATING FROM THE TRACTOR, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

What fixes it

Official remedy

REPAIRS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED TO ALL AFFECTED CHASSIS BY THE EQUIPMENT SUPPLIER, FONTAINE. ACCORDINGLY, AN OWNER NOTIFICATION CAMPAIGN IS UNNECESSARY AND IS NOT PLANNED. OWNERS MAY CONTACT KENWORTH AT 1-425-828-5440.
