Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
Without the required markings, owners may not be able to identify affected warning triangles involved in a recall involving their reflectivity and visibility. Triangles that have reduced visibility increase the risk of another vehicle crashing into the parked vehicle.
PACCAR Parts (PACCAR), a division of PACCAR Incorporated, is recalling certain aftermarket Mirrex and TRP-branded Warning Triangle kits, sold June 1, 2009, to July 2, 2014, as Paccar part numbers GMX1005K and MD1005K.
The affected warning triangle kits do not have the manufacturer’s name permanently marked on each triangle in the kit.
As such, these Warning Triangle kits fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 125, “Warning devices.”
