The problem
Strick Trailers, LLC (Strick) is recalling certain model year 2011-2015 single axle van trailers manufactured March 2010 to March 2014. The affected trailers may be equipped with rear impact guard gussets part numbers 59653 and 59654. These rear impact guard gussets increase the chances of injury in the event of an accident. Thus, these trailers fail to comply with the Federal Motor Vehicles Safety Standards No. 223, "Rear Impact Guards."
The risk
These rear impact guards increase the risk of injury in the event of a vehicle crash.
The fix
Strick will notify owners, and dealers will install reinforcements to the rear impact guard, or replace the rear impact guard gussets, free of charge. The recall began on August 25, 2014. Owners may contact Strick customer service at 1-800-967-6272.
