What’s wrong with it?
WITHOUT THIS LIGHTING, AND PARTICULARLY, DURING NIGHT DRIVING CONDITIONS OR WHILE THE TRAILER IS PARKED, OTHER VEHICLES MAY NOT SEE A TRAILER, THEREBY INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
CERTAIN RECREATIONAL TRAILERS DO NOT CONFORM TO THE LIGHTING REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 108, ‘LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES, AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT.’ AMBER INTERMEDIATE SIDE MARKER LAMPS AND REFLEX REFLECTORS IN VEHICLES LONGER THAN 30’ IN OVERALL LENGTH WERE MISSING.
ALSO THE ABSENCE OF THE REAR IDENTIFICATION LAMPS IN VEHICLES OVER 80” IN OVERALL WIDTH.

What the record doesn’t say
- NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
- Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
- This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
