MULTIPRENS TRIANGLE KIT STK-100

  • Brand MULTIPRENS

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Multiprens USA, Inc. is recalling certain STK-100 triangle kits manufactured between October 4, 2011, and July 21, 2014. These warning triangles may fail to meet safety standards because they could have an incorrect inner orange border, insufficient reflectivity, incorrect reflector color, or may move in wind. The triangles may also experience joint separation and discoloration after use. Because these triangles may not properly warn other drivers about a disabled vehicle, they create an increased risk of crashes.

Multiprens will notify owners and advise them to return the triangle kits for a full refund, with the recall expected to begin in April 2015. Owners should contact Multiprens customer service at 1-913-371-6999 and reference recall number MUSA0814.
