What's wrong?
The frame on the 2010-2016 Multiquip TRLR-55164, TRLR-55348, and TRLR-57615 trailers is the welded structure that carries the trailer body, load, axle hardware, and towing forces. It keeps the trailer square and stable behind the tow vehicle. The A-frame area is especially important because it transfers pulling and braking forces from the hitch into the rest of the frame.
On affected trailers, some frames did not go through the beveling process before welding. Beveling prepares the metal edge so the weld can penetrate and hold the joint properly. Without that preparation, the welds at frame joints are prone to cracking or breaking. Multiquip's remedy adds two inner reinforcement plates, one on each side of the A-frame where cracking occurs.
Owners can see the warning signs before the frame fails. Look for cracks at the welded joints of the trailer frame, or visible sagging in the frame.
