2014 KIDRON REFRIGERATED TRAILER; 2015 KIDRON REFRIGERATED TRAILER
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
VT Hackney, Inc. is recalling certain 2014-2015 Kidron Refrigerated Trailers manufactured between August 9, 2013, and June 15, 2015. The trailers have a main wiring harness that may not supply adequate power to the connector at the rear of the trailer used when a second trailer is attached. This insufficient power can cause the second trailer's anti-lock brake system (ABS) to malfunction, which may increase braking distance during emergency braking and increase the risk of a crash.
VT Hackney began notifying owners on August 20, 2015, and dealers will install an additional power cable at no charge. Affected consumers should contact VT Hackney customer service at 1-800-763-0700 for further information.
