Strick Trailers rear impact guards may not be strong enough to prevent a vehicle from traveling under a trailer in the event of a crash.
The short version
Strick Trailers, LLC reported a problem with the structure. Here is what owners need to know.
The rear impact guards may not be strong enough to prevent a vehicle from traveling under a trailer in the event of a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 223, "Rear Impact Guards."
If the trailer is rear ended by a automobile, the guard may fail to prevent the automobile from traveling under the trailer, increasing the risk of injury to the driver of the automobile.
Strick will notify owners, and service centers will install reinforcements to the rear impact guards, free of charge.
