The defect
Vanguard National Trailer Corporation (Vanguard) is recalling two 2022 VIP 53 ft. trailers. The wheel hubs may have an insufficient amount of lubrication, which could cause the hub bearings to fail.
The risk
Hub bearing failure could cause the wheel hub assembly to detach, causing a loss of stability and control, or create a road hazard, and increase the risk of a crash.
