The issue

Issue: On certain trucks, the welds that attach the trailer hitch may crack due to improper welding. As a result, the hitch could detach from the truck while towing a trailer. Note: This recall only affects certain trucks with trailer hitches installed by Commercial Truck Equipment. Safety Risk: A trailer that detaches from a truck could create a risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Commercial Truck Equipment will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a dealer to inspect the trailer hitch and repair or replace it, as necessary. You should stop using the trailer hitch until the inspection and repair have been completed.

Description (français)

Problème : Sur certains camions, les soudures utilisées pour fixer l'attelage de remorque pourraient se fissurer parce qu'elles ont été mal jointes. En conséquence, l'attelage pourrait se détacher du camion qui tire une remorque. Remarque : Le présent rappel vise seulement certains camions sur lesquels des attelages de remorque ont été installés par Commercial Truck Equipment. Risques pour la sécurité : Une remorque qui se détache d'un camion pourrait créer un risque d'accident. Mesures correctives : Commercial Truck Equipment doit aviser les propriétaires par la poste et leur demander d'amener leur véhicule chez un concessionnaire pour faire inspecter l'attelage de remorque, ainsi que de le faire réparer ou remplacer, au besoin. Le propriétaire doit arrêter d'utiliser l'attelage de remorque jusqu'à ce qu'il ait été inspecté et réparé.
