Summary

Kentucky Trailer Manufacturing is recalling 3 model year 2019-2023 (KTSV) XL-12 trailers that are equipped with Carrier Transicold Supra 950, 950MT, and 960 refrigeration units. The centrifugal clutch in these specific refrigeration units can overheat and break apart during operation. Carrier will replace the panels around the clutch assembly free of charge to address this safety defect.
