Issue: On certain trucks, the relay for the tarp system may not have been installed properly. As a result, water could enter the relay and cause it to short circuit. Note: This recall only affects certain trucks equipped with a Roll-Rite tarp system. Safety Risk: A relay that short circuits could create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: Parts for Trucks will notify owners by mail and provide you with instructions for how to inspect and, if necessary, reinstall the tarp system relay.
