Recall 21V553000 · manufacturer campaign TS-0039

Trailer Hitches — Ranger Trail · reported 21 Jul 2021 · 145 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

Tracker Marine, LLC (Tracker) is recalling certain 2021-2022 Ranger Trail RT198PP and RT198PPB trailers. An incorrect-size safety cable was installed, which is under-rated for the size of the trailer.

The risk

The safety cable may not prevent trailer detachment in the event the coupler fails, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will replace the safety cable, free of charge. Owners may contact Tracker customer service at 1-417-873-4555. Tracker's number for this recall is TS-0039.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
