Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Tremcar Inc. is recalling rear impact guards on certain trailers from 2008 to 2017, including 1350, 1625, 2300, and 2800 cubic foot models. The guards may not adequately reduce the risk of a car traveling under the trailer during a crash, which could increase the possibility of injury to car drivers. The guards fail to meet federal safety standards when impacted at the outer portions.
The remedy for this recall is still under development. Owners of affected trailers should contact Tremcar customer service at 1-800-363-2158 for information about the ongoing recall.
