NHTSA complaints per Utility VS2RA model year. Click a bar for details.

Newer model years have had less time on the road, so they naturally have fewer complaints. Compare a year against its neighbors rather than against brand-new models.

Utility VS2RA recalls

  • Recall 17V483000Aug 1, 201735 vehiclesModel years 2017

    Risk: If the mud flap detaches during trailer use, it could become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

  • Recall 15V774000Nov 19, 201510 vehiclesModel years 2015

    Risk: If the caliper detaches from the axle flange, braking performance would be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.

  • Recall 15V063000Feb 4, 20153,111 vehiclesModel years 2014–2015

    Risk: If the diaphragm is not completely attached, there may be internal leakage from the service section past the diaphragm, potentially trapping air pressure in the parking brake section. This air pressure in turn, if not vented, may prevent full release of the actuator unit, and may induce brake drag and may result in overheated wheelend service brakes, increasing the risk of a fire.

  • Recall 14V463000Jul 30, 20142,098 vehiclesModel years 2013–2014

    Risk: If the loop were to break off, the air lines and electrical lines would detach, applying the towed trailer's brakes, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

  • Recall 14V221000Apr 24, 2014507 vehiclesModel years 2015

    Risk: Bearing failure may lead to a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

  • Recall 11V191000Mar 24, 2011105 vehiclesModel years 2011

    Risk: Slack adjusters with this flow notch could crack under normal braking conditions causing loss of braking which could result in a vehicle crash.

  • Recall 11V117000Feb 18, 2011384 vehiclesModel years 2007–2009

    Risk: Low and/or no torque on the nut can result in excessive end-play in the wheel-end system and could progress to a wheel separation which could result in a crash.

  • Recall 10V545000Nov 5, 2010189 vehiclesModel years 2009

    Risk: Missing welds could allow the axle to roll out of position and potentially impact the handling of the trailer such that a driver may lose control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
