What was wrong

Defect

Cequent Performance Products is recalling certain Tekonsha Electric Trailer Brake Control Wiring Adapters with Part No. 30232-P and 30231-P. These adapters are used as aftermarket equipment on model year 2013 Dodge Ram 1500 vehicles. If the brakes are applied while the turn signal is activated, the turn signal may turn off. The opposite trailer turn signal may then activate.

Risk

An incorrect turn signal will not properly notify others of the driver's intent (such as direction of a turn or lane change), increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Cequent will notify distributors, dealers, installers, and customers and will replace the adapters free of charge. The recall began on August 16, 2013. Owners may contact Cequent at 1-877-827-0799.
