NHTSA recall 05V144000 · Apr 7, 2005 · 165 vehicles

Problem: CERTAIN TOY HAULER TRAILERS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD (FMVSS) NO. 108, "LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES, AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT." THE REAR AND REAR-SIDE MARKER LIGHTS WERE PURCHASED AND INSTALLED WITHOUT THE REFLEX REFLECTOR CAPABILITY.

Risk: DURING NIGHT DRIVING CONDITIONS OR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS PARKED, THE REAR AND REAR-SIDE MARKER LIGHTS WILL NOT PROVIDE ANY REFLEX REFLECTION TO MARK THE VEHICLE'S LOCATION IN THE DARK INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Fix: DEALERS WILL REMOVE AND REPLACE FOUR MARKER LIGHTS WITH A SURFACE MOUNT BRACKET FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON MAY 11, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FLEETWOOD FOLDING AT 1-800-322-8216.

Recall repairs are free at any authorised dealer. A recall listed here may already have been fixed on a particular car: enter its 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see open recalls.
