The defect
Hyundai Translead is recalling certain 2017 Hyundai Translead Composite trailers, model number 30012130, and HyCube trailers model numbers 30012400, 30012409, 30012410, 30012431, 30012434, 30012481, and 30012595. These trailers are equipped with MPA/MTA suspensions and Meritor EX225 brakes. The brake caliper bolts on these axles may not be properly torqued which can allow the caliper to detach from the mounting flange.
The risk
If the caliper bolts are improperly torqued and the caliper detaches from the mounting flange, a loss of braking ability would occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
