Issue

Issue:
On certain vacuum excavator trailers, the front clearance lights may be positioned incorrectly and the side clearance lights may be blocked by other parts. The trailer may also be missing reflectors and reflective tape. Canadian regulations require trailers to have reflectors and clearance lights that are visible and positioned correctly.

Safety Risk:
A trailer that does not have reflectors or has clearance lights that are not visible could create an increased risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
The company will notify owners by mail to instruct you to take your trailer to a dealer to relocate the clearance lights, and install any missing reflective tape and reflectors.
