NHTSA Campaign 17V110000

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES

Issued by Aluminum Trailer Company · Reported Feb 17, 2017 · 16 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Aluminum Trailer Company (ATC) is recalling certain 2017 bumper-pull Quest trailers equipped with the Stacker package and either three, 6000lb or two, 7000lb axles. In the affected vehicles, the trailer walls may flex and allow the lift platform to disengage from the safety lock. If this happens when the lifting chains are slack, the lift platform may unexpectedly drop.

Consequence

If the platform unexpectedly drops, it can increase the risk of injury.

Remedy

ATC will notify owners, and dealers will install a flange to prevent the lift from slipping out of the safety lock, free of charge. The recall began on April 18, 2017. Owners may contact ATC customer service at 1-574-773-2440. ATC's number for this recall is STKR-LIFT.
