Recall history
3 distinct campaigns affect this selection. Announcement dates below are different from vehicle model years. A campaign may cover multiple years.
16V425000 · Trailer Hitches:Fifth Wheel Assembly
Reported: 2016-06-10 (June 10, 2016) · Model years: 2014, 2015, 2016
Vermeer Manufacturing Company (Vermeer) is recalling certain 2014-2016 TG5000 Tub Grinder trailers manufactured November 23, 2013, to May 23, 2016. The spherical washers used during the assembly of the kingpin may have been installed incorrectly, possibly causing the attaching bolts to fail and therefore the kingpin to detach.
Consequence: If the kingpin does not remain properly connected to the trailer, the trailer may detach from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Vermeer will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and repair the installation of the spherical washers, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on August 4, 2016. Owners may contact Vermeer customer service at 1-641-628-3141.
NHTSA campaign record ↗16V427000 · Parking Brake:Conventional:Air
Reported: 2016-06-13 (June 13, 2016) · Model years: 2014, 2015, 2016
Vermeer Manufacturing Company (Vermeer) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 TG5000 vehicles manufactured November 23, 2013, to May 23, 2016. The assembly instruction manual for these vehicles called for the wrong slack adjuster pushrod length to be used, and as a result, the pushrod threads may fail, causing the trailer parking brakes to unintentionally engage.
Consequence: If the trailer brakes unintentionally engage it would increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Vermeer will notify owners, and dealers will reset the air brake pushrod length to the correct dimension, free of charge. The recall began on August 4, 2016. Owners may contact Vermeer customer service at 1-641-628-3141. Vermeer's number for this recall is IK3334.
NHTSA campaign record ↗16V486000 · Parking Brake
Reported: 2016-06-27 (June 27, 2016) · Model years: 2014, 2015, 2016
Vermeer Manufacturing Company (Vermeer) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 DT6, HG4000, HC6000, HG8000, TG5000, TG7000 and WC2300XL, 2014-2015 TG9000 and 2015-2016 WC2500XL trailers, equipped with certain Bendix SR5 spring brake valves. These valves may have been improperly machined which may cause a delay of application of the spring brakes while parking.
Consequence: If there is a delay of the spring brake application, the trailer may roll away after it has decoupled from the tractor, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
Remedy: Vermeer will contact owners and provide a remedy kit, complete with instructions, to repair any affected SR-5 trailer relay valves, free of charge. Vermeer issued an interim notification to owners on August 19, 2016. The recall began on October 14, 2016. Owners may contact Vermeer Customer Service Department at 1-641-628-3141. Vermeer's number for this recall is IK3350.

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
2015: 0 complaints · 2016: 0 complaints
| Model year | Through age 0 | Through age 1 | Through age 2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2015 | 0 | 0 | 0 |

Incident date is preferred when valid and no later than filing; otherwise filing date is used. Model year approximates age. Equal observation time does not adjust for sales, distance driven or reporting delays. One complaint linked to multiple model years can appear in each cohort.
