STEERING:CRITICAL FASTENERS
- The defect
- Manac, Inc. (Manac) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Steel Platforms (10450A140), 2019 Transfer Trailer (36453C038), and 2019 Square Dump Trailer (41336B739). The steer arm bolts may break, allowing the steer arm to detach from the steering knuckle.
- What it can cause
- A detached steer arm may drag, increasing the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Manac will notify owners, and Dexter dealers will weld the steering arm to the knuckle, free of charge. The recall began on June 17, 2021. Owners may contact Manac customer service at 1-800-361-7900.
- 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 11 vehicles this is a small campaign: 91% 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 2018 to 2019, so the oldest vehicles on it were 3 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
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 Manac, Inc. with NHTSA on April 20, 2021 as campaign 21V269000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
