STRUCTURE:BODY

Issued by Lode-King Industries, Ltd. · Reported Apr 28, 2026 · 114 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Lode-King Industries, Ltd (Lode-King) is recalling certain 2019-2026 SDG53-3, SDF53-3, and SDF50-3 trailers. The rear impact guard may be missing welds, reducing the guard's structural strength. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 223, "Rear Impact Guards."

Consequence

A guard with inadequate strength may not sufficiently protect a following vehicle, increasing the risk of injury during a rear end crash.

Remedy

Lode-King will inspect and add welds as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed May 4, 2026. Owners may contact Lode-King's customer service at 1-204-325-4345 or 1-866-797-0669.
