Description

John Evans Manufacturing Co. (John Evans) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 chassis and trailers; model year 2013-2014 remanufactured chassis and trailers, and model year 2013-2014 Cheetah Chassis and trailers. The affected products were manufactured September 5, 2012, through April 19, 2013. The wheel lug nuts may not be properly torqued.
