STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS
- The defect
- Trail King Industries, Inc. (Trail King) is recalling certain 2020-2024 TKHT Hydraulic Tail trailers. The suspension assembly could flex the subframe beam, causing the beam to fatigue and crack.
- What it can cause
- A cracked subframe beam can cause the suspension to separate, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will install reinforcement supports and a larger reinforcement plate, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 25, 2024. Owners may contact Trail King customer service at 1-800-843-3324. Trail King's number for this recall is TK202402.
- 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 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 .
| Vehicle | Model years | Safety record |

How this campaign compares
At 396 vehicles this is a small campaign: 52% 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 2024, so the oldest vehicles on it were 4 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Trail King vehicles have been recalled over the structure 5 times before this, most recently in February 2021 as 21V092000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
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 Trail King Industries, Inc. with NHTSA on November 18, 2024 as campaign 24V866000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
