4 units affected
Issue: Certain vacuum excavator trailers may be missing side and rear reflectors and/or some trailers may be missing side and rear reflective tape. Canadian regulations require trailers to have these reflectors. Safety Risk: A trailer with missing reflectors is less visible to others and could create an increased risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and supply the necessary parts and instructions. Owners will be instructed to take their trailer to a dealer to add the required reflective tape and reflectors.
