Electrical System › Wiring — Mustang Trailer · reported 10 Apr 2006 · 21 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
ON CERTAIN FLATBED UTILITY TRAILERS WHICH CONTAIN BREAKAWAY KITS, THE WIRING HARNESS WAS INCORRECTLY WIRED.
The risk
IF THE TRAILER SHOULD BECOME DISCONNECTED FROM THE BREAKAWAY SWITCH PLUG, THE BRAKES WILL NOT APPLY AS REQUIRED, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
The fix
DEALERS WILL INSTALL A NEW HARNESS. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING APRIL 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT MUSTANG TRAILER AT 1-412-678-0100.
CUSTOMERS MAY ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), OR GO TO HTTP://WWW.SAFERCAR.GOV.
Vehicles covered by this recall

Is this car's recall fixed?
Recall repairs are free at any franchised dealer, for the life of the vehicle. A CarLogs report shows the recall status for a specific VIN as reported by the manufacturer — whether it's open or repaired, and whether the fix is available yet.
