Wabash National Corporation "Wabash" is recalling certain 2020-2023 RFALHSA trailers. The lift gate obscures the rear conspicuity tape placed at deck height. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
Obscured conspicuity tape may reduce visibility of the rear of the trailer for nearby drivers and increase the risk of a crash.
Wabash will supply conspicuity tape, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on November 4, 2022. Owners may contact Wabash's customer service at 1-765-771-5404.
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.
