The problem
C&M Trailers Inc. (C&M) is recalling certain 2016 5x10 Cargo Trailers manufactured July 1, 2016, to December 1, 2016. The affected trailers may be missing the required license plate illumination. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirement of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
The risk
A lack of trailer lighting may make it difficult for other drivers to see the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
C&M will notify owners, and dealers correct the lights and install a new license plate cover, free of charge. The recall began on February 21, 2017. Owners may contact C&M customer service at 1-972-875-4528.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
