Vac-Tron Equipment trailers are not equipped with a rear impact guard.
The short version
Vac-Tron Equipment, LLC reported a problem with the body bumpers. Here is what owners need to know.
The trailers are not equipped with a rear impact guard. As such, these trailers fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 224, "Rear Impact Protection."
If a vehicle strikes the rear of the vacuum excavator, the vehicle may travel under the rear of the vacuum excavator, increasing the risk of injury and/or death.
Vac-Tron will notify owners, and dealers will install a field remedy kit, free of charge.
