Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Kentucky Trailer Manufacturing is recalling approximately 1,439 of its 2022-2024 MV and PV truck bodies. The upper cargo area floor in these vehicles may not be properly secured, which can cause the supporting crossmembers to loosen and detach from the vehicle. Authorized dealers will secure the floor for all affected units free of charge.

Risk

If the crossmembers supporting the cargo floor loosen and detach, they can fall off the truck body into the roadway, creating a road hazard and increasing the risk of an injury or crash.
