The defect
Tracker Marine, LLC (Tracker) is recalling certain 2021-2022 Ranger Trail RT198PP and RT198PPB trailers. An incorrect-size safety cable was installed, which is under-rated for the size of the trailer.
The risk
The safety cable may not prevent trailer detachment in the event the coupler fails, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will replace the safety cable, free of charge. Owners may contact Tracker customer service at 1-417-873-4555. Tracker's number for this recall is TS-0039.
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.nhtsa.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.
