WHEELS
- The defect
- Wabash National Corporation (Wabash) is recalling certain 2027 Van Trailers. Incorrect wheel bearing lubricant may cause the wheel end to seize, which can result in wheel lock-up.
- What it can cause
- Wheel lock-up can result in a loss of vehicle handling and control, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and replace the wheel bearing lubrication as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed November 25, 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 475 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 50% of the 19,904 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one. The middle campaign among them 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 wheels once before this, most recently in March 2007 as 07V106000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 2 other recalls published here: 26V506000 (service brakes, air), 26V391000 (structure).
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 October 16, 2026 as campaign 26V683000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
