The risk
The steps could break while in use, increasing the risk of injury.
The remedy
SMC has notified owners, and dealers will inspect the trailers, correcting the welds and installing rivets as necessary, free of charge. The recall began April 23, 2019. Owners may contact SMC Trailers at 1-574-966-5598.

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.
