The short answer
NHTSA received Cequent Performance Products, Inc.’s report on Jul 30, 2013. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 20, 2026.
Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
An incorrect turn signal will not properly notify others of the driver’s intent (such as direction of a turn or lane change), increasing the risk of a crash.
Cequent Performance Products is recalling certain Tekonsha Electric Trailer Brake Control Wiring Adapters with Part No. 30232-P and 30231-P.
These adapters are used as aftermarket equipment on model year 2013 Dodge Ram 1500 vehicles.
If the brakes are applied while the turn signal is activated, the turn signal may turn off.
The opposite trailer turn signal may then activate.

What the record doesn’t say
- NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
- Which ones, by part or lot: the recall’s report on NHTSA’s site gives them where the maker did; this file gives part numbers only where its maker listed them.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
