The defect
Aluma KLM (Aluma) is recalling certain 2021 8214HSTILT trailers. The front latch rivet nuts may not remain secure, causing the angle mounting bracket to become loose.
The risk
A loose angle mounting bracket may disengage, and cause the trailer bed to tilt unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will install new mounting hardware, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on December 21, 2021. Owners may contact Aluma's customer service at 1-866-415-3285.
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.
