Read complaints for WABASH NATIONAL VAN (2013)
I drive for werner enterprises and i have raised this safety issue many of times to all levels of upper management.i am on the anheuser busch dedicated account and we pull these 53' dry van trailers that are certified by wabash to 68,000 lbs. Gross weight. These trailers are registered in nebraska for a gross weight of 34,000 lbs. Unladen weight is 13,500. Our normal load weight vary between 49,000 lbs. And 52,150 with a max gross weight of 80,000 lbs. The safety issue is that the weight we are carrying is causing stress failures in the structure of these trailers and it is a fact of not if but when one of these trailers have a catastrophic failure while in transit.we have already had at least one trailer collapse under the load while setting at the brewery.this is an aging fleet of about 200 trailers and i have a grave concern for the safety of our fellow motorist that we share the road with. *dtcarfax cannot process this request.
