Transport Canada recalls

Electrical#2013386November 4, 2013
12 units affected
On certain trucks, the trailer wiring connector may have been incorrectly wired so that a stop signal overrides the turn signal. As a result, trailer lights would not indicate a turn while braking. This could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install a replacement wiring harness.
