What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Lode-King Industries LTD. (Lode-King) is recalling certain 2015-2021 Prestige SDG53-2 step-deck semi-trailers. The cargo securing winches may not be properly mounted to the trailer. As a result, the cargo winch mount could fail and allow cargo to come loose.

The risk

If the mount fails, the cargo or load can fall off the trailer and become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Lode-King will notify owners, and dealers will replace the cargo winches with an updated version, free of charge. The recall began April 30, 2020. Owners may contact Lode-King customer service at 1-204-325-4345.

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.
