2016 Vintage Crystal recalls
Recall 16V-033: Equipment
Problem: Vintage Trailers Ltd. (Vintage) is recalling certain model year 2009-2016 Intimidator, Aero, Outlaw, Bandit, and Crystal SS triple axles trailers manufactured May 9, 2008, to September 23, 2015. The affected trailers have a Federal Certification Label that incorrectly lists the gross axle weight rating (GAWR) of each axle as 5,200 pounds when the correct GAWR is 5,080 pounds. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 120, "Wheels and Rims- Other than Passenger Cars."
Risk: If the operator overloads the trailer past the 15,200 pound gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) limit, axle failure may occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Vintage will notify owners and will provide a corrected Federal Certification Label, free of charge. The recall began on March 1, 2016. Owners may contact Vintage customer service at 1-800-233-5455.
