The defect

Great Dane Trailers (Great Dane) is recalling certain 2018 Everest SS refrigerated trailers. A plug for the front brake chamber service port may not have been properly tightened, possibly reducing the service brake pressure.

The risk

A reduction of service brake pressure can lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
