STRUCTURE

Issued by Strick Trailers, LLC · Reported Mar 3, 2016 · 233 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Strick Trailers, LLC (Strick) is recalling certain model year 2001, 2003, 2005, and 2008-2012 Single axle van trailers equipped with rear impact guards using gussets 50185 and 50186. These rear impact guard gussets increase the chances of injury in the event of a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 223, "Rear Impact Guards."

Consequence

If the rear impact guards do not meet the safety standards, it can increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.

Remedy

Strick will notify owners, and service centers will install reinforcements free of charge. The recall began on April 15, 2016. Owners may contact Strick customer service at 1-704-436-2590.
