The short answer

NHTSA received Carrier Corporation’s report on Apr 15, 2014. 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?

If the bottom panel bolt abrades one of the two battery wires in the harness, a short may occur, increasing the risk of a fire.

Carrier Corporation (Carrier) is recalling certain Carrier Transicold X2 2100A, X2 2500A trailer refrigeration units, and aftermarket replacement part kits.

The affected units have certain taped wiring harnesses and optional field-installed unit bottom panels.

A bolt may protrude from the bottom panel and abrade the taped wiring harness.

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.
