NHTSA Campaign 24V305000

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TAIL LIGHTS

Issued by Reading Truck Body LLC · Reported Apr 29, 2024 · 54 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Reading Truck Body LLC (Reading) is recalling certain 2022-2024 RM-78 11' and RM-78 14' vehicles. The taillight may be incorrectly positioned, exceeding the maximum allowed height. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Consequence

Incorrectly mounted taillights can reduce the vehicle's visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will relocate the taillights, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 10, 2024. Owners may contact Reading customer service at 1-800-458-2226.
