What's wrong

CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2005-2008 LONG CHIH TRAILERS FAIL TO CONFORM TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 110, "TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS" IN THAT THEY ARE MISSING A TIRE PLACARD LABEL. ALSO, THE GVWR ON THE CERTIFICATION LABEL ON SOME OF THE TRAILERS IS INCORRECT. FINALLY, THE GVWR AND GAWR MUST BE STATED IN POUNDS.

The risk

THE MISSING AND INCORRECT INFORMATION COULD LEAD TO IMPROPER VEHICLE LOADING OR TIRE INFLATION WHICH COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH.

CORRECTED LABELS WILL BE MAILED TO CONSUMERS WITH INSTRUCTION TO PROPERLY AFFIX TO TRAILER. ALSO, ACCURATE CONSUMER INFORMATION WILL BE PROVIDED. THE RECALL BEGAN ON JULY 14, 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT LONG CHIH AT 886-2-29068666.

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.
