- The defect
- Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Everest Refrigerated Vans. The axle nut retaining clips may have been improperly installed, potentially resulting in loose wheels and loss of vehicle control.
- What it can cause
- Loss of vehicle control increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Great Dane will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and properly install the axle retaining clips, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began April 28, 2020. Owners may contact Great Dane customer service at 1-912-232-4471.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 79 vehicles this is a small campaign: 73% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2020 to 2021, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2020, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 21V841000 (service brakes, hydraulic).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Great Dane Trailers with NHTSA on April 8, 2020 as campaign 20V202000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
