What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Trail King Industries, Inc. (Trail King) is recalling certain 2016-2018 Trail King Dolly trailers. The dolly frame channel may crack near the center cross members.

The risk

If the frame channel cracks completely it can cause the frame rail to separate, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Trail King has notified owners, and dealers will reinforce the frame channel to prevent cracking, free of charge. The recall began August 15, 2018. Owners may contact Trail King customer service at 1-800-843-3324. Trail King's number for this recall is TK201801.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

A 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.
