The problem
C & b is recalling certain model year 2010 and 2011 c&b livestock trailers manufactured from june 30, 2010, through february 21, 2011 and built with an automatically latching rear gate. These trailers are equipped with a gate latch release handle located on the outside; to be reached through a window while inside the trailer should the gate become closed. Due to factors such as arm length, some users may not be able to reach the outside handle once inside.
The risk
Personal injury can occur should someone become trapped within the trailer.
The fix
C & b will contact owners, and dealers will install a handle that is accessible from inside the trailer. The safety recall began on september 23, 2011. Owners may contact c & b at 1-208-455-2768.
