Summary

Reading Truck Body LLC is recalling 54 units of its 2022-2024 RM-78 11' and RM-78 14' vehicles. These vehicles were manufactured with taillights mounted too high, which fails to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for lighting and reflective equipment. Owners will be provided with a free repair where dealers will relocate the taillights to the correct position. Notification letters were sent to known owners on June 10, 2024.

Risk

The incorrectly positioned taillights can make the vehicle less visible to other drivers on the road. This reduced visibility increases the likelihood of a rear-end collision or other crashes, especially in low-light conditions.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if your vehicle is affected by checking if it is a 2022-2024 Reading RM-78 11' or RM-78 14' model.
  2. Contact Reading Truck Body LLC customer service at 1-800-458-2226 to verify if your specific vehicle is included in this recall and to schedule a free repair.
  3. Bring your vehicle to an authorized dealer who will relocate the taillights to the compliant height at no cost to you.
  4. For further information or to report safety concerns, contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
