NHTSA recall 16V196000
Equipment, Trailer Hitches · Cruiser RV
Details
What's wrong: The affected vehicles are equipped with safety chains on the a-frame that are rated for 11,700 lbs instead of being rated equal to, or greater than, the gross vehicle weight rating (gvwr) of the travel trailer.
Why it matters: In the event the main trailer connection fails, the weight of the trailer can break the safety chains if the chains are not strong enough, allowing the trailer to separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Cruiser will notify owners, and dealers will replace the existing safety chains with chains that have a 16,200lb rating, free of charge. The recall began on April 21, 2016.
