The problem

Tracker marine is recalling 1,161 my 2007 trailstar k17v, k18v, k21vhdsa, k21vta, k23vta, p27, p30, p32, and my 2008 k17, k18v, k1901, k21vhdsa, k21vta, k23vta, p27, p30, p32, mk184sa, and mk204ta galvanized boat trailers using jacks made by shelby industries (Tracker part no. 129111, shelby part no. 5874a8-24hgx). These trailers are used with kenner, sun tracker, and mako boat models. The mounting hardware for the trailer jack, which is used to elevate the trailer tongue during storage, may loosen and allow the jack assembly to disengage from the trailer.

The risk

If the jack falls off while the trailer is in motion, damage to following vehicles could occur or a vehicle crash may result.

The fix

Dealers will replace the nut and bolt that is part of the trailer jack mounting hardware. The recall began on june 19, 2008. Owners may contact tracker marine at 1-417-873-4555.
