18V825000 · Structure
Reported: 2018-11-21 (November 21, 2018) · Model years: 2019
Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain 2019 Great Dane Freedom Combo Drop Deck Platform trailers. The rear impact guards on these vehicles may be too narrow. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 223, "Rear Impact Guards."
Consequence: If the rear impact guards do not meet the width requirements, the guards may not prevent a vehicle from going under the trailer in the event of a rear impact, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy: Great Dane will notify owners, and dealers will install a set of rear impact guard extensions, free of charge. The recall began December 21, 2018. Owners may contact Great Dane customer service at 1-877-369-3493.

Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain 2019 Freedom Platform trailers. The platform trailers may have been produced without a rear impact guard (RIG) certification plate. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 223, "Rear Impact Guards", and 224, "Rear Impact Protection."
Consequence: Rear impact guards with missing plates may not be identified in the event of a safety recall, potentially resulting in an un-remedied safety issue and an increased risk of a crash or injury.
Remedy: Dealers will provide new RIG certification plates stamped with the trailer date of manufacture, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 24, 2022. Owners may contact Great Dane's customer service at 1-877-369-3493.

Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain 2020-2022 Everest, Champion, and Freedom trailers.

Consequence: Pressure loss in the iABS unit can cause a loss of brake function, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the iABS unit serial number, and replace if serial number is on the list, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 23, 2021. Owners may contact Great Dane customer service at 1-877-369-3493.
