Defect Description:
STRUCTURE:BODY
Potential Consequences:
This trailer left the factory in an extremely unsafe condition and this seems to be common with Big Tex Trailers. I'm the 2nd owner but the trailer is pretty much brand new. I was looking around underneath and happened to see a bad weld. I inspected the trailer underneath and found a bunch of welds either completely missing or so poor they might as well be missing. On some welds the joint was completely missed. The most concerning is that several leaf spring hanger brackets were only welded in 1 spot. If this trailer was loaded to capacity there is no doubt it would cause an accident. Big Tex clearly has no quality control and someone is going to be seriously injured if something isn't done to stop it. This form only allows 10 pics to be uploaded and there are more than 10 structural welds missing
