Defect description

CERTAIN TOY HAULER TRAILERS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD (FMVSS) NO. 108, "LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES, AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT." THE REAR AND REAR-SIDE MARKER LIGHTS WERE PURCHASED AND INSTALLED WITHOUT THE REFLEX REFLECTOR CAPABILITY.
