Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.
0
Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

TRAILER HITCHES

Jun 14, 2016
36 units potentially affected
The defect: PJ Trailers is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 T1 single axle tilt trailers manufactured March 31, 2015, to November 17, 2015. During production, these trailers had a notch cut into steel tongue that may have been too deep and thus compromised the strength of the tongue, causing it to crack and separate from the trailer.
The risk: If the trailer separates from the tongue, the rest of the trailer would not be connected to the tow vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy: PJ Trailers has notified owners, and provided each owner with a reinforcement kit to have installed, free of charge. The recall began in November 2015. Owners may contact PJ Trailers customer service at 1-866-752-8781.

Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
