2022-2025 SpecialContainer trailers recall: Brakes may not operate as intended

Wartech Engineering is recalling certain 2022–2025 SpecialContainer trailers due to an incorrect threaded piping fitting installed between the anti-lock braking system (ABS) module and the air tank. The fitting may leak air, causing unintended brake activation or reduced brake pressure which increases crash risk; owners are advised not to tow their trailer until repairs are completed, and Wartech will replace the fitting free of charge. Owner letters are expected to be mailed November 13, 2025; contact Wartech at 1-734-429-2002.
