What's wrong: Equipment description: this recall is for trailer towing wire harness converters installed by dealers or for installation on 1999-2000 Toyota tundra and tacoma vehicles. The connectors integrate the vehicle's tail lights, brake lights, and turn signal lights with those equipped on the trailer, are defective.
