STRUCTURE:CRITICAL FASTENERS
- The defect
- Wabash National Corporation (Wabash) is recalling certain 2027 Wabash van trailers. The bumper tube bolts may have been improperly tightened, reducing the protection provided by the rear impact guard. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 223, "Rear Impact Guards."
- What it can cause
- An improperly installed guard may not sufficiently protect a following vehicle, increasing the risk of injury during a rear end crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will tighten the bumper tube bolts, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 14, 2026. Owners may contact Wabash customer service at 1-765-771-5404.
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 920 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 57% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2027, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2026, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Wabash vehicles have been recalled over the structure 6 times before this, most recently in November 2025 as 25V774000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 26V506000 (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 Wabash National Corporation with NHTSA on June 15, 2026 as campaign 26V391000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
