Safety Chains May Fail Allowing Trailer to Detach

The lower rated safety chains may fail if the trailer detaches from the tow vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

 

Summary

Highland Ridge RV (Highland Ridge) is recalling certain 2018 Light recreational trailers, models 312BHTS and 275RLS. The safety chains on these vehicles may be rated for a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 7,600 lbs, however the trailer has a GVWR of 11,700 lbs.

 

Remedy

Highland Ridge will notify owners, and dealers will replace the 7,600 lb chains with 11,700 lb chains, free of charge. The recall began on December 4, 2017. Owners may contact Highland Ridge customer service at 1-260-768-7771. Highland Ridge’s number for this recall is 9904364.
