Details

What's wrong: The rear bumper mounting brackets have been improperly installed. The mounting holes were cut oversized and can allow the mounting bolts to pull through the brackets on the chassis.

Why it matters: This condition can allow the bumper to loosen and fall off the trailer increasing the risk of a vehicle crash or property damage.

The fix: Dealers will inspect and repair these trailers.
