Heartland Trailers Recalled Due to Blocked Clearance Light

The blocked light may make the trailer less visible to other drivers

Heartland has issued a recall of 20 model year 2015-2016 Revolution trailers due to a blocked rear clearance light.

The affected trailers have a rear clearance light that is covered by a brace for the rear gate. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) Number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

A blocked clearance light may make the trailer less visible to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

Heartland will notify owners, and dealers will remove the gate brace free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule, however.

For more information, owners may contact the Heartland Customer Service Department at (573) 471-6826.
