21V626000
What was wrong
Defect
Cottrell, Inc. (Cottrell) is recalling certain 2018-2021 1-Car Carrier trailers. These trailers were manufactured without side and rear reflex reflectors. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
Risk
Without the proper reflective equipment, the trailers may have reduced visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
Manufacturer remedy
Cottrell will provide 4 reflex reflectors and installation instructions to owners, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on August 11, 2021. Owners may contact Cottrell's customer service at 1-770-532-7251. Cottrell's number for this recall is 2021 1-Car Reflector.
