STEERING
- The defect
- Nelson Trailers (Nelson) is recalling one 2018 CBC-40ST trailer equipped with a Dexter Smart-Steer Axle with a bolt-on steering arm. The steering arm may break during certain conditions, such as low speed and high side-loading.
- What it can cause
- A broken steering arm and tie rod can separate and fall to the ground, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- The affected trailer has been repaired, free of charge. Owners may contact Nelson customer service at 1-419-523-5321.
- 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.nhtsa.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 vehicle this is a small campaign: 100% 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 one model year, 2018, so the oldest vehicles on it were 5 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 Nelson Trailers with NHTSA on August 4, 2023 as campaign 23V552000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
