What's wrong?
The axle rubber on these 2022-2023 Nitro Trailers Sch, Nchcc, Nch, Dt, Scc, Nis, Sc, Nc, Och, and Sis trailers is a rubber spacer installed between the axle and the main trailer frame. That area carries suspension loads and keeps the axle positioned correctly under the trailer. The spacer was used as a barrier at the axle mounting point.
On affected trailers, the rubber spacer deteriorates with use. Once the rubber wears down, the axle no longer sits as intended against the frame, and the axle alignment can shift. That misalignment changes how the tires meet the road, which can lead to abnormal tire wear and handling concerns while towing.
The manufacturer determined that this rubber barrier is not needed and that the repair is to remove it. There is no warning sign before failure. Abnormal tire wear is the condition that led to the issue being found, so owners who see unusual tire wear should have the trailer inspected.

The scope spans Nitro Trailers and Edge Trailers models from the 2022 and 2023 model years, all tied to the same suspension component.
