VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: FLATBED TRAILERS. THE WRONG MATERIAL SPECIFICATION WAS FURNISHED FOR THE VERTICAL GUSSETS OF THE BUMPER. THIS WOULD ALLOW THE BUMPER TO FAIL BY FOLDING UNDER THE TRAILER AT LOWER IMPACT FORCES THAN ALLOWED. THESE BUMPERS DO NOT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 223, "REAR IMPACT GUARDS." Remedy: DEALERS WILL ADD TWO STEEL BARS TO THE VERTICAL GUSSETS OF THE REAR BUMPER.
We checked Transport Canada's recall database for this make, model and year.

Certain trailers do not comply with the requirements of CMVSS 223 - Rear Impact Guard. The rear bumper vertical brace gussets were manufactured using lower grade steel than is required by the Standard. This would allow the bumper to fail by folding under the trailer at lower impact forces. Failure or the rear bumper could allow vehicles involved in a collision with the rear end of the trailer to run under the trailer, which could result in severe injuries to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will reinforce the rear bumper assembly.
