EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL:WINCH
- The defect
- Diamond C Trailer MFG. (Diamond C) is recalling certain 2023-2024 FMAX, SDX, and PX trailers equipped with a spare tire winch. The winch system that secures the spare tire to the trailer may loosen or fail over time.
- What it can cause
- Winch system failure can result in the tire detaching from the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will install a secondary retention device in the form of a steel bar and latch, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed October 30, 2023. Owners may contact Diamond C customer service at 1-903-572-2834.
- 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 2,523 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 68% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2023 to 2024, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2023, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
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 Diamond C Trailer MFG. with NHTSA on September 28, 2023 as campaign 23V655000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
