LOSS OF THE TRAILER INCREASES THE RISK OF PERSONAL PROPERTY OR A CRASH.
Manufacturer remedy
DEALERS WILL INSTALL SAFETY CHAINS, "DANGER" AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE OPERATORS AT THE COUPLER AND INSIDE OF THE TRUCK CAB.
Owner complaints
A complaint is one person's report to a federal agency. It is not a finding.
No complaints in our copy of the federal file for this model year. The daily feed covers recent filings; older history appears only after a full-history rebuild.
Safety recall repairs are provided free of charge by franchised dealers, regardless of vehicle age or mileage. This page displays aggregated data for the model year. To check recall status for a specific vehicle, search its VIN at nhtsa.gov.
