- The defect
- Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain 2021-2022 Champion and 2022 Everest trailers equipped with the WABCO 2S/2M iABS (Anti-Lock Brake) system. The iABS sensor cables may be plugged into the wrong ports on the electronic control unit (ECU).
- What it can cause
- If the sensor cables are installed incorrectly, the anti-lock brake system may malfunction, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Great Dane will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the routing of the iABS sensor cables and correct them as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on March 22, 2021. Owners may contact Great Dane customer service at 1-877-369-3493.
- 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 1,770 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 64% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2021 to 2022, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2021, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Great Dane vehicles have been recalled over the service brakes, hydraulic once before this, most recently in February 2004 as 04V053000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 4 other recalls published here: 22V159000 (suspension), 21V943000 (wheels), 21V841000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 21V383000 (service brakes, air).
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 February 18, 2021 as campaign 21V094000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
