What's wrong?
The trailer tongue on a 2020-2022 Temp Air EBB-60 is the structural piece that connects the trailer frame to the tow vehicle. It has to carry towing loads while keeping the trailer aligned behind the vehicle, including when the trailer starts, stops, and turns.
On affected trailers, the tongue was made from formed 10 gage sheet metal instead of the structural steel used for the replacement part. That material does not have the safety factor needed for this installed use. Under normal towing load, the tongue can deform and bend, which changes the shape of the connection between the trailer and the tow vehicle.
The warning sign is found by inspection. Owners or operators should look for a trailer tongue that is bent, deformed, or no longer straight before the trailer is used again.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Temp Air technician replaces the trailer tongue with a safe replacement tongue. The trailer tongue is the forward frame section that connects the EBB-60 trailer to the tow vehicle, so the repair removes the part that can deform and bend during use. Parts and labor are covered under the recall. Temp Air is also providing labor reimbursement for customers who already had their equipment refit with safe replacement tongues. Contact Temp Air customer service with your repair documentation.
