What's wrong?

The brake hose on the 2024 Stoughton CCGN-40T trailer is part of the air brake supply system. It carries compressed air through the brake lines so the trailer brakes respond when the truck driver applies the brake pedal. The hose also needs to be routed with enough slack and held in place at the air tank so it is not pulled, rubbed, or stressed during normal trailer movement.

On affected trailers, the hose installed at the factory is the wrong length. Some trailers also have air tank fasteners that are inadequate or missing. That combination leaves the hose less protected and less controlled than intended. Over time, the hose can be pulled or strained until it fails; Stoughton identified a longer hose as the fix to prevent premature failure.

There is no warning sign before failure. An owner or fleet should treat any loose hose, missing tank hardware, or change in brake feel as a reason to have the trailer inspected before further use.

What's the safety risk?

Brake hose failure can cause a loss of braking ability and increase the risk of a crash. If your CCGN-40T feels harder to stop or braking changes, pull over when safe and arrange service before using it again. Repair is free at any franchised Stoughton dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2024 Stoughton CCGN-40T trailer is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Stoughton dealer to schedule the free brake-hose replacement and air tank fastener inspection that addresses the incorrect hose length and inadequate or missing fasteners.
  3. Bring the recall notice if Stoughton mailed one. If not, reference recall number 23V460 when you call.
  4. Avoid hauling the trailer until the dealer completes the repair, because brake hose failure can reduce braking ability.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Stoughton technician replaces the brake hoses, then inspects the air tank fasteners and installs any missing or inadequate fasteners needed to complete the repair. Parts and labor are free under the recall. Prior repair costs are handled through the manufacturer's warranty program, not through a separate reimbursement process. If you already paid for related brake hose or air tank fastener work, ask the service desk how warranty coverage applies to your prior repair paperwork.
