Lakota Corporation "Lakota" is recalling certain 2018-2019 Bighorn, Charger and Colt horse and livestock trailers equipped with a rear ramp option. These trailers may be missing the nuts and bolts through the ramp channel that go into the rear of trailer C channel, allowing the rear ramp to detach while moving.
If the ramp comes loose while moving, it can increase the risk of a crash.
Lakota has notified owners, and dealers will drill holes, and install the bolts and lock nuts to secure the ramp, free of charge. The recall began on May 9, 2018. Owners may contact Lakota helpdesk at 1-574-848-1636.
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.safercar.gov.
