Reasons the product is recalled
The bicycle axle may have been damaged when initially installed and/or during use with the Coho® XC Cargo Trailer.
The hazards to consumers
If the bicycle axle fails while riding, this can cause the Coho® XC Cargo Trailer to detach from the bicycle leaving only one of two tow arms connected to the bike.
If this occurs, this can cause instability of the trailer and the bicycle rider, increasing the risk of an accident or injury.
