The short answer

NHTSA received Lippert’s report on Jul 5, 2023. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 28, 2026.

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

An axle that moves out of position can cause a loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash.

Lippert (Lippert) is recalling certain Curt 7000 and 8000 lb axles.

The U-bolts may have been improperly tightened, which can cause the axle to move out of position.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Which ones, by part or lot: the recall’s report on NHTSA’s site gives them where the maker did; this file gives part numbers only where its maker listed them.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
