What is wrong
PROLine Products LLC (PROLine) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Cargo trailers equipped with 3500lb-capacity galvanized Dexter Torflex axles. Due to the acorn wheel nuts that secure the wheels to the hub being too short, the wheels may detach during use.
What can happen
If the trailer wheels loosen or detach, it can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
PROLine will notify owners, and dealers will replace the acorn wheel nuts, free of charge. The recall began on April 21, 2017. Owners may contact PROLine customer service at 1-800-994-0960.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
