The defect
TAXA LLC (TAXA) is recalling certain 2021-2024 Mantis trailers. The gaskets and brackets could fail to stabilize the freshwater tank, allowing the tank to move and detach from the trailer.
The risk
A detached tank can fall, becoming a road hazard and increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will replace the gaskets and brackets, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 20, 2024. Owners may contact TAXA customer service at 713-861-2540.
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.
